Sisällön kuvaus

The survey gathers the opinions of municipal councilors on municipal policy and on various types of councils. The respondents are municipal councilors. The data was collected as part of the Politician Panel, which is part of The Finnish Research Infrastructure for Public Opinion (FIRIPO).

First, respondents were asked about various statements related to neutrality and the extent to which they perceive the handling of certain cases to be neutral in their municipality. This was followed by a question about the perception that some politicians hold political positions at different political levels. This was followed by statements about the councils in the municipalities, relating to issues such as the influence of the councils, the information available from the councils and the extent to which the expertise of the different councils is used in the municipality.

Background variables include party membership, electoral district, gender, mother tongue, age and educational level.

Otantamenetelmä

Non-probability: Purposive

Around 95% of the Finnish municipal councilors were invited to join the panel, which totaled 8999 at the time of the invitation in spring 2020. After the 2021 municipal elections, a new recruitment process was carried out to remove 338 people from the panel who had lost their councilor place, and an invitation was sent by email to 3888 new councilors to register for the panel. Of the new councilors, 436 people enrolled to the panel. An invitation to participate in the survey was sent by email to the people on the panel.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

The researcher has anonymised the data by replacing the variable indicating the municipality of residence with a variable indicating the electoral district to prevent identification of respondents. The researcher has also removed open-ended variables from the data.

Helsinki and Uusimaa electoral districts have been combined at FSD for identification reasons.
