Sisällön kuvaus

The 2020 International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) studied Finnish views on nature and the environment. Main themes included climate change, environmental problems, pollution, environmental conservation, what people would be willing to do for the environment and what were important issues for society in general. The 2020 survey is the third survey in the ISSP environment module collected in Finland.

The respondents were asked what issues they considered important in Finland (e.g. health care, education, the economy, the environment) and what were the most important things the country should do (maintain order, give people more say in government decisions, fight rising prices, protect freedom of speech). They were also asked to what extent they agreed with statements relating to how to solve income inequality and Finland's economic problems. Interpersonal trust and trust in government and politicians were also surveyed.

Next questions focused on the environment. Views were probed on the most important environmental problems in Finland and the solutions to such problems. The respondents were also asked about climate change and its impacts for the world as a whole and for Finland. Willingness to protect the environment through higher prices, higher taxes or cuts in the standard of living was surveyed. Additionally, willingness to accept a reduction in the size of Finland's protected nature areas in order to open them up for economic development was charted. A number of statements charted the respondents' attitudes to environmental protection. Opinions were also probed on how dangerous for the environment certain things (e.g. air pollution, pesticides and chemicals in farming, water pollution, climate change, modifying the genes of crops) were and what were the best ways to protect the environment. Finally, the respondents' relationship with nature was examined with questions on, for instance, how often they engaged in leisure activities outside, how many trips they had made by plane in the past twelve months, how often they ate meat or meat products, and how often they recycled.

Background variables included the respondent's gender, age, years of full-time education, type of employer, legal marital/partnership status, trade union membership, religious affiliation, religious attendance, self-perceived social group, party affiliation, voting, household composition, R's and household income, and R's and spouse's/partner's employment relationship, working hours, occupational status, occupation and economic activity.

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Systematic random

The respondents were drawn from the Finnish population register using systematic random sampling. Sample size was 2,800 persons, of whom 1,137 responded. Before sampling, the population was sorted according to municipality of residence and time of birth. Respondents were reached out to a maximum of five times using invitation letters, e-mail and paper questionnaires mailed to respondents. Total non-response was 1,663 persons, of which 30 were unable to complete the survey and one denied participation.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

To prevent identification of respondents, the following anonymisation measures were taken: open-ended variable k54 charting ethnic group was deleted; parents' countries of birth in k60a-k60b were coarsened; the variable denoting region of residence was classified into NUTS2 major regions. Additionally, responses from persons residing in the Åland Islands were classified as missing values in variables k49 (religious communities), k54_1 and k54_2 (ethnic group), k11, k21, k46a, and k46b (respondent's and their spouse's and parents' occupation) and k60a and k60b (parents' countries of birth).

Painokertoimet

The data contain two weight variables (analysis weight [apaino] and sampling weight [opaino]), which were created using a calibration method in order to improve estimation efficiency and to correct non-response bias. The weights are based on the following population distributions: 1) gender, 2) age groups (15-24, 25-34, ..., 65-74), 3) NUTS3 regions so that Greater Helsinki area was treated separately, and 4) municipality type (urban, semi-urban, rural). The sampling weight variable [opaino] weights the results to match the whole Finnish population (the sum of the weights equals the size of the Finnish population). The analysis weight variable [apaino] does not produce this kind of extension (the weighted mean is 1 and the sum equals the number of cases). Both variables are based on the same calibration process, only the scale is different.
