Errata:
- Variable REGION for Great Britain / United Kingdom in EUROBAROMETER 5-10 and 16-31A: Should read "EAST MIDLANDS" instead of "NORTH MIDLANDS".
- The original British data for the AGE variables in Eurobarometer 30 and 31 incorrectly recorded the last two digits of year of birth instead of age at time. In the case of survey no. 30, the variable was recoded as far as possible. For survey no. 31, correct data have subsequently been inserted in the ZA data set. The codebook documentation has been corrected for ZA deliveries after March 15, 1999.
- Dubious frequencies and inconsistencies have been detected for the RELIGION DENOMINATION variable (V715) for Belgium and Germany. Category '9' ("none") shows unusual high frequencies for Belgium; probably the categories '9' and '0' (DK/NA) have been merged. For Germany categories '9' and '0' have probably been exchanged; usually about 10% of respondents in Germany do not consider self as belonging to a particular religion. In general, answers to category '9' ("none") have erroneously been pre-defined as "missing value"; users might want to correct this. Correct data are not available (September 14, 2000).
