Canadian Election Study, 1972, June-July

Three studies are included in this set of National Canadian Election Surveys of 1972. All three were conducted by telephone, two were administered prior to the National election and one following the October 31st election date. The first study, conducted between June and July, 1972, focused on the respondents' opinions on the political parties, issues and personalities in federal politics. The issues that were assessed included inflation, constitutional reform, campaign spending, marijuana legislation, and the right of federal employees to strike. The respondents were also asked to assess the performance of the Prime Minister and also the qualifications of the main opposition candidates. Finally, the respondents were asked about their partisan affiliation and their voting behavior over the past few elections. The dataset included information on 1000 respondents (two cards of data per respondent). The only demographic information in this study is the sex of the respondent. The second study was conducted in September 1972 and assessed the respondents' opinions on political issues such as unemployment, Canadian/U.S. relations, environment, taxes, price controls, and certain federal programs. In addition, the respondents were questioned about their candidate preference, partisan identification, and party preference for the upcoming election. Basic demographic data were also included for the 1255 respondents (three cards of data per respondent.). The third study in this series was administered in early November. The respondents were asked to evaluate the federal election campaign, the candidates, parties and political issues. The respondents were also questioned about their voting behavior in both the federal and local elections. Two forms of questionnaires were used, one for voters and the other for non-voters. Demographic information was obtained for all respondents. The dataset contains information on approximately 1298 respondents (four cards of data per respondent).本数据集包含1972年加拿大全国选举调查（National Canadian Election Surveys）的三项研究。三项研究均采用电话访谈方式开展，其中两项于全国选举前实施，剩余一项于10月31日选举日之后完成。第一项研究于1972年6月至7月间开展，聚焦受访者对联邦政坛各政党、政治议题与政治人物的看法。本次调研评估的议题涵盖通货膨胀、宪法改革、竞选经费开支、大麻立法，以及联邦雇员罢工权等。受访者还被要求评价时任总理的履职表现，以及主要反对党候选人的资质素养。最后，调研询问了受访者的党派归属，以及过往数届选举中的投票行为。本数据集共收录1000名受访者的相关信息，每名受访者对应两条数据卡片。本研究仅包含受访者性别这一项人口统计学信息。第二项研究于1972年9月开展，评估了受访者对各类政治议题的看法，包括失业问题、加美双边关系、环境保护、税收政策、价格管制，以及部分联邦政府项目。此外，调研还询问了受访者的候选人偏好、党派认同，以及对本次即将到来的选举的党派投票倾向。本次调研共收录1255名受访者的基础人口统计学数据，每名受访者对应三条数据卡片。本系列的第三项研究于11月初实施。受访者被要求评价本次联邦选举的竞选活动、各候选人、政党及政治议题。调研还询问了受访者在联邦选举与地方选举中的投票行为。本次调研采用两类问卷形式，分别面向投票者与非投票者群体。所有受访者均提供了人口统计学相关信息。本数据集共收录约1298名受访者的相关信息，每名受访者对应四条数据卡片。
