Module QA on SOCIAL CLIMATE replicates questions asked in the context of Eurobarometer 79.4 (QA1 to QA4) and 74.1 (QA5 to QA12).
Category scheme for country specific protocol variables P6 (SIZE OF COMMUNITY) has changed considerably, except for Germany. Categories for all other countries have been harmonized among each other to three values (Rural area – Towns and suburbs / small urban area – Cities / large urban areas).
Category scheme for country specific protocol variables P7 (REGION) have changed for some countries, in particular introducing NUTS categories for Ireland, Estonia and Croatia. Data for protocol variables p8 (postal code), p9 (sample point number) and p10 (interviewer number) have not been made available.
Data for protocol variables p1 (date of interview), p2 (time of interview), p3 (duration of interview), p4 (n of persons present during interview), and p5 (respondent cooperation) have subsequently been made available by TNS and been integrated by the archive starting with dataset version v2.0.0.
