The Candidate Countries Eurobarometer (CCEB) series, first conducted in 2001, gathers information from the countries applying to become members of the European Union (EU) in a way that allows direct comparison with the standard Eurobarometer series carried out in the existing EU countries. The CCEB provides decision-makers and the European public with opinion data on the similarities and differences between the EU and the candidate countries. The CCEB continuously tracks support for EU membership in each country and records changes in attitudes related to European issues in the candidate countries. This round of the CCEB surveys was conducted between March 21 and May 4, 2003, in the 13 candidate countries: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Turkey. The main aim of this Eurobarometer survey was to capture some of the policy-relevant characteristics of the youth in the candidate countries. Respondents were queried on such topics as young adults living at home with their parents, activities (i.e., reading, watching television, going to the cinema, or shopping) done during leisure time, organizations in which they actively participated, attitudes toward foreigners, foreign languages spoken, European countries visited, unemployment, sources of revenue, information media usage, and social and political attitudes. The respondents were further asked questions about the meaning and importance of the EU, EU citizenship, areas in which the EU should give more priority (e.g., housing, education and training, public health, or cultural and artistic associations), from what sources information about the EU were obtained, and feelings regarding the EU "Youth Programme," which the EU uses as a way to show support to young people. Demographic variables include nationality, age, gender, household income, current occupation, and whether the respondent was paid directly or indirectly by the state, local government, or other public administration, marital status, level of education, number of people living in household, whether anyone in the household owned a color television set, video recorder, video camera, automatic washing machine, dishwasher, home computer, microwave oven, mobile phone, or two or more cars, religious affiliation, how often religious services were attended, and voting intent.
