    Description

    These surveys of Macedonian public opinion were conducted on behalf of the International Republican Institute by the Brima market research firm. The surveys includes questions concerning general attitudes toward the government, the internal political situation in Macedonia (2015-2016), the implementation of the Przino Agreement and so forth.

    Data was collected over four time periods (June 6-15, 2015/ Sept 29-October 5, 2015 / January 16-27, 2016 / April 19-25, 2016) using in-person, face-to-face methodology by trained professional interviewers.

    The sample was prepared using the State Statistical Office data (2002 census results) for the population aged 18 and older, considering the structure of the population according to age, gender, education, type of housing, national affiliation and region and updated according to estimates and primary information, collected by Brima.

    Stratification was based on three stages: first, the number of respondents for each of the regions was specified in proportion to the size of the population aged 18 and older that live in it. Second, the sampling plan consisted of 164 sampling points located according to urban/rural split, municipality size and nationality diffusion. Third, the selection of households was based on random route method, whereby in urban areas, every third household on the left-hand side of the street was selected. In rural areas, the wave-wise approach is applied and the selected household is every fourth inhabited house/dwelling on both sides of the interviewer’s route/track, counting from the first house on the left.

    This poll was conducted with support from the United States Agency for International Development.

    Description

    The AsiaBarometer, 2008 represents a cross-national effort to study the lives of the peoples of Australia, China, India, Japan, Russia and the United States of America on physical, psychological, and sociological dimensions. The project was designed to capture the extent to which respondents experience the affective and cognitive qualities of life, focusing on their assessments of their own lives as well as their relationships to family, neighborhood, workplace, social institutions, political institutions, and the marketplace. Attitudes toward development, democracy, and regionalization were examined, as were the types of goods and services desired and consumer habits. Respondents were queried on their overall personal satisfaction as well as their satisfaction with their friendships, family life, marriage, standard of living, housing, household income, health, education, neighbors, job, leisure time, public safety, the condition of the environment, the social welfare system, and the political system. Data were gathered on the respondents' personal priorities and those they had for their children, as well as their level of trust in others, their inclination to help others, and what characteristics and affiliations they used to identify themselves. Respondents were asked to rate the efficacy of their national governments in handling the economy, political corruption, human rights, unemployment, crime, public services, immigration, ethnic conflict, religious conflict, and environmental problems. Additional questions asked whether government officials were responsive to problems of the general population, what type of political systems respondents favored, and the extent to which the national government, the local government, the army, the legal system, the police, the national legislative branch (e.g., Parliament, Congress), the public education system, large domestic companies, multinational companies, trade/labor unions, the media, and other nongovernmental organizations (e.g., environmental, social advocacy groups, and nonprofit organizations) could be trusted to operate in the best interests of society. Participants were asked which macro-socioeconomic issues they were most concerned with and what matters they believed the government should spend more or less on. Respondents were polled on their level of personal involvement in political, governmental, and community affairs, the inclusiveness of the government, and their perspectives on the importance of political and electoral participation. Additional questions addressed respondent exposure to and opinions of foreign companies, peoples, governments, and cultures. Market analysis inquiries included what products respondents owned, planned to own in the near future, or desired to own, as well as what consumer services they had used or would like to use. Respondents were asked about their modes of transportation, their current types of residence, whether or not they planned to own their own residences, and the availability of public utilities. Respondents were surveyed on what foreign and domestic companies they were familiar with and which forms of media they used to obtain consumer and political information. Background information includes age, sex, occupation, employment status, household income, family structure, number of people in household, number of children, education, marital status, English proficiency, religious affiliation, and religious participation.

    Abstract

    The 1993 Czech Republic Reproductive Health Survey (CRRHS) was a nationally representative household survey of women 15 to 44 years of age, undertaken in order to explore important issues related to reproduction and women's health in that country. This survey was carried out at a time when substantial reforms in the Czech health care system were taking place or were being considered.

    The reforms taking place have largely grown out of the fall of communism and the resultant changeover to a free market economy, the rise of democracy, and the breakup of the Czechoslovak Federation. Among the changes underway at the time of the survey were: Reforming the administrative structure of the health care system from one in which most responsibility for health care delivery resided at the regional level to one in which districts, municipalities, and the national Ministry of Health take over those responsibilities; privatization of the health sector, including hospitals, polyclinics, physician services, and pharmacies; and, reforming health care financing by introducing a system of health insurance, rather than having health care funding completely centralized and financed from general tax revenues. In this period of change and uncertainty it is important that policymakers and health care providers be aware of the current status of reproductive health throughout the population and the use of and need for various services related to family planning and maternal and child health.

    The CRRHS was intended to serve several purposes. The last large, national survey covering a wide array of demographic and reproductive health topics was the 1977 Czechoslovakia Fertility Survey (World Fertility Survey 1978). Because no such surveys had been conducted in recent years on family planning and reproductive health in Czechoslovakia or the Czech Republic, this survey was the first opportunity in many years to update basic measures, such as contraceptive prevalence, unmet need for contraception, use of maternal and child health services, and many others. These measures constitute important information in determining a population's needs and problems. In recent years, at least two useful surveys have been carried out, but both were relatively limited in regard to both content or sample size (Kraus 1987; Uzel, Ketting, et al. 1992). The size and scope of the 1993 CRRHS allows highly detailed analysis with regard to many reproductive health questions for subgroups of the Czech population.

    There are several issues in the area of reproductive health in the Czech Republic that were known to merit close examination prior to carrying out the 1993 CRRHS. Official statistics show that the rate of induced abortion and the ratio of abortions to live births has remained very high (although they appear to have declined recently). Reducing the number of abortions would be in the best interest of public health in the Czech Republic, regardless of one's views regarding the legality and morality of abortion. It appears that modern, highly reliable contraceptive methods are not as widely used as they are in most other developed countries. The failure to use such methods contributes to high rates of unintended pregnancy. Furthermore, pregnancy and unprotected intercourse among Czech women under 18 years of age appear to be quite widespread. In addition, relatively little data exist on the extent of certain behaviors that affect the health of women and their infants, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and the prevalence of being overweight. The CRRHS was designed to provide information that would contribute to strategies for addressing these issues in the Czech Republic.

    Besides information about health status and practices, the 1993 CRRHS measured attitudes and opinions about the quality and types of reproductive health services offered, restrictions on the availability of induced abortion, and problems associated with the use of modern contraceptives. Also, as AIDS emerges as an important public health problem, it is important to find out how well informed women are about the means of transmission and prevention of this disease.

    Geographic coverage

    The 993 CRRHS was designed to collect information from a nationally representative sample of women of reproductive age from throughout the Czech Republic.

    Universe

    The universe from which women were selected consisted of all females between the ages of 15 and 44 years living in households in the Czech Republic at the time that the survey was carried out. Although some pregnancy and childbearing takes place outside the ages 15 to 44, because of the relative rarity of these events at those ages, it was decided that it would be most efficient to limit the sample to women between 15 and 44 years of age.

    Sampling procedure

    Selection of survey respondents was made using a three-stage cluster sampling design. First, 166 pairs of basic census enumeration districts (ED) (332 districts in all) were systematically selected from throughout the country, with the probability of selection proportional to the population of each census enumeration district. These 332 ED constituted the primary sampling units (PSU) for the survey. The sample included ED in all but one of the Czech Republics 85 districts. The Czech Statistical Office then made listings available of all known dwelling units in each of the selected ED. These listings were taken from the 1991 Population and Housing Census. Because the selection of PSUs was done proportional to population size and no strata were oversampled, the sample was geographically selfweighting.

    In the second stage of selection, individual dwelling units were sampled from each ED chosen in the first stage. Because of slightly different mean numbers of 15 to 44 year-old women per household according to size of community, the number of dwelling units selected in an ED depended on the population of the community in which the ED was located, as follows:

    Community Selected / Population Dwelling Units 1 - 4,999 : 43 5,000 - 19,999: 37 20,000+ : 39

    One dwelling unit was randomly chosen from the each PSU. That unit and the 42, 36, or 38 units (depending on the community population) listed next constituted the sample of housing units to be visited. No substitution was made for dwellings that were unoccupied or where nobody was at home. By varying the number of units selected according to the average number of women per household we were able to hold fairly constant the average numbers of women living in selected ED across population size categories. If the selected ED had fewer households than were needed to constitute a sample sector, all dwelling units were sampled and another ED (the one with the next highest number, which was usually geographically contiguous) was added to the sample.

    The third and final stage of sampling consisted of the selection of individual respondents. In households in which more than one woman between the ages of 15 and 44 lived, the household respondent was asked for a listing of all such females. One of those women was randomly selected by the interviewer to be the survey respondent. During analysis each record was weighted by the number of women of childbearing age in the household, to compensate for the fact that only one woman per household was selected with probability inverse to the number of women in the household.

    Mode of data collection

    Face-to-face [f2f]

    Research instrument

    The CRRHS questionnaire covered a wide range of topics in the area of reproductive health and related areas.The specific subject areas included were: - Pregnancy and childbearing history - Knowledge, past and present use of, and need for contraceptive methods - Use of maternal and child health services - Sexuality, contraception, and pregnancy among young adults (15-24 years) - Women's health issues - Knowledge and attitudes about selected issues in reproduction - Knowledge about HIV/AIDS and its transmission - Social, economic, and demographic characteristics

    Cleaning operations

    At the Czech Statistical Office questionnaires were reviewed once more by coordinators and sent for data entry. Questionnaire data was entered onto computers by three clerks, using SURVEY, a data entry/editing package developed at CDC. The SURVEY package is used to edit data as they are entered, by identifying data items that are outside of their allowable range or inconsistent with other information on the questionnaire.

    Response rate

    A total of 12,747 dwelling units were visited in the 332 sample sectors. Women eligible for interview were identified as residing in 38.2% of these units. In 52.2% of the households visited there were no 15-44 year-old women resident. Nobody was home at 4.0% of units and 3.0% of units were uninhabited. Residents refused to be interviewed at 2.7% of households. As the size of community increased, the percent of refusals increased slightly and the percent of households with no eligible females decreased.

    Of the 4,870 households identified as containing at least one 15-44 year-old female, interviews were completed in 4,497, for a completion rate of 92.3%. Of those women selected, 5.3% refused to be interviewed and 1.6% were not found at home, even after repeated visits. The completion rate fell slightly as community size grew, from 93.8% in towns under 5,000 population to 91.3% for cities with at least 20,000 people.

    In regard to residential characteristics, the sample appears to have been highly representative of the 15-44 year-old population of the Czech Republic. Of the Czech Republic's nine regions, only in Prague was the difference between the 1991 Census and CRRHS proportion of the female
