Sisällön kuvaus

The survey studied the respondents' values. Views were probed on tax avoidance, death penalty, suicide, homosexuality, abortion, social security benefits, nepotism, euthanasia, control over own life, immigrants, voluntary work, and political parties. The respondents were also asked on what basis they decide what is right and what is wrong. A number of questions dealt with the respondents' attitudes towards religion and religious ceremonies, their religious attendance and affiliation, and beliefs. The respondents speculated on the possible reasons for suffering, and how the different biblical statements correspond with their own opinions. Experiences towards God and divinity were also canvassed. In addition, the respondents assessed how the financial resources of the Lutheran Church should be allocated, and how significant those resources are to society.

Background variables included the respondent's gender, employment, education, economic activity, marital status, number of children, and the spouse's education, religious denomination and religious attendance, size of the household, and number of inhabitants in the municipality of residence.

Cross-section

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Multistage

The sample has been collected as a multistage stratified sample. In the first phase, the target persons were divided by province. Then, within each province, the target persons were divided according to community type: the communities were grouped in different types so that cities were divided to big and small according to population size, and rural communities in three classes according to industrial structure. The choice of municipalities is representative. In the third phase, a group of starting points were designated for the selected municipalities in relation to their population. Each randomly selected point resulted in six interviews. From each household the person who matched the gender and age requirements stated in the selection card was interviewed.
