Sisällön kuvaus

The Citizens' Pulse surveys examine Finnish attitudes and opinions in the context of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Main themes in the surveys include the activity and communication of authorities, compliance with regulations, future expectations, trust, and the respondents' own state of mind. This collection round also included questions about the Russian invasion of Ukraine and response to crisis situations.

The third collection round of 2022 surveyed the respondents' trust in other people and in various institutions, such as the Finnish Government, the health care system, and the media. The respondents' state of mind was examined with questions on various matters relating to health, well-being, and their situation in life. The questions covered, for example, the respondents' own mental well-being, whether they were worried about the adequacy of their income, their confidence in their future, experiences of stress and togetherness, and whether they felt their lives were meaningful. Additionally, the respondents were asked to evaluate whether an atmosphere of crisis prevailed amongst Finns.

The next set of questions focused on the crisis in Ukraine and crisis situations in general. In relation to the Ukraine crisis, the respondents were, for example, asked about their sense of security, worries caused by the crisis and its possible impact on the Finnish economy and their own financial situation, whether they were concerned that the war might expand beyond Ukraine, and whether they approved of the economic sanctions imposed on Russia by the EU. Views on crisis situations, such as COVID-19 and climate change, were charted with questions on whether the respondents felt that they had prepared for crisis situations adequately (e.g. by stockpiling food and medicine) and whether they would be willing to help others in crisis situations (e.g. by making donations to non-profit organisations, offering accommodation to people fleeing crisis zones, collecting supplies). The respondents were also asked whether they would volunteer during a crisis on their own initiative or if requested to do so by authorities or non-profit organisations. Those who indicated that they would not volunteer were asked to identify their reasons for not volunteering (e.g. want to take care of their own family, too old to take part, authorities should be responsible for providing assistance).

On the topics of communication and dissemination of information, the respondents' opinions on the availability, reliability and accuracy of the information provided by Finnish authorities on the coronavirus crisis were charted. Compliance with coronavirus restrictions was examined by asking the respondents whether they had followed the restrictions and recommendations set by authorities for preventing transmission of the virus, including maintaining safe distances, wearing a face mask, and minimising contacts with people outside immediate family and friends. The respondents were also asked how necessary they felt that it was to follow measures such as wearing a mask and maintaining safe distances after receiving two or three doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, and whether they would be willing to receive a fourth dose of the COVID-19 vaccine if authorities recommended it.

Background variables included the respondent's gender, age group, NUTS3 region of residence, highest level of education, household composition, and perceived financial situation of household.

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Stratified

The sample for the third collection round of 2022 was formed of the target persons aged 15 to 74 living in mainland Finland who had responded to Statistics Finland's Labour Force Survey, Consumer Confidence Survey, or Finnish Travel Survey between 23 December 2021 and 4 February 2022, and for whom a current telephone number could be found. The sample size was 2,495 persons. The persons included in the sample for Citizens' Pulse had expressed their willingness to respond to an additional survey when responding to the three surveys mentioned above. The samples for the Labour Force Survey, Consumer Confidence Survey and Finnish Travel Survey are drawn as stratified random samples from Statistics Finland's population database, which is based on the Central Population Register.

An invitation to participate in the study and a personal direct link to a Webropol survey were sent to the respondents by text message. The text message also contained a link to the Statistics Finland data collection webpage, where the participants were informed about, for instance, data protection. The data collection page includes a link to the privacy notice. Reminder messages were sent to those who had not yet responded two days after the first text message and on the last day of data collection. Most of the responses were received in the first three days after data collection began.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

Men responded to the survey less often than women. For age groups, people aged between 20 and 29 responded least often. The response rate was slightly lower for respondents who had completed only primary and lower secondary education than for those who had attained tertiary level education.

The data delivered to FSD did not contain responses to open-ended questions.

Painokertoimet

The data contain a weight variable [paino] which weights the data to correspond to the target population (people aged 15-74 residing in mainland Finland). Statistics Finland based the weight on population information from the end of January 2022 (4,081,151 persons). The weight variable is an expansion weight which aims to correct for non-response bias. Expansion weights expand the sample to correspond to the population. The sum of the expansion weights equals to the number of people aged 15-74 living in mainland Finland in the population. The mean of the expansion weights, 3,608, indicates how many people in the population each respondent roughly represents. The starting point for the weighting was the creation of a base weight, i.e. the inverse of a sampling unit's inclusion probability. Because there was nonresponse, the original sample size was replaced by the actual sample in the data (=number of respondents) and thus the base weight was 4,081,151/1,131. In calibration, the base weights were altered so that correct population distributions could be produced according to the calibration variables used. The calibration variables included gender, NUTS2 major region, age (10-year grouping), and level of education. The weights were calibrated with the CALMAR2 SAS macro program.
