Observa Political Index Polls 1987: February

#Observa opinion polls: #---------------------- # #From 1967 and onwards Observa has carried out a number of opinion polls, i.e. surveys of attitudes and habits of life, partly through so-called political index polls (postal panel surveys) and partly through more extensive attitudinal surveys based on interviews. The political index polls have been carried out regularly in the period (approx. 10 times a year), whereas the attitudinal surveys have been carried out quarterly in the period 1969 to 1972. The current data collection of similar data material over a long period of time makes it possible to carry out various kinds of time series analyses, especially as regards party preference. #Other subjects are usually treated more superficially owing to the conditions under which the surveys are carried out (they are designed for publication in daily papers so the main emphasis has been put on topical issues, and only subjects which may be dealt with by means of a limited number of questions are included). #Until 1971 the political index polls were carried out for the daily paper Aktuelt; from 1972 for the daily paper Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten. The attitudinal surveys have been carried out exclusively for Jyllands-Posten. # # #Observa Political Index Polls, 1987: #------------------------------------ #In 1987 Observa carried out 11 political index polls. All the questions from these surveys, together with a fixed set of recurring background variables, are found in DDA-1934: Observa Political Index Polls, 1987. In addition, the individual political index polls, which contain various questions on topical issues, are found in DDA-1935 to DDA-1945. # #This survey (DDA-1935 Observa Political Index Polls 1987: February) deals with the following topical issues: # #Party preference; the appeal case against Jan Bonde Nielsen; trust in the judicial system; attitude to placing TV 2 west of the Great Belt, and preferred location of TV 2; preferred government after the next general election; investments in installations and operation in connection with the Aquatic Environment Plan; assessment and consequences of the collective bargainings; attitude to profit sharing; and use of a number of discount schemes
