=========================================================================== COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ELECTORAL SYSTEMS (CSES) www.cses.org MODULE 3 (2006-2011) QUESTIONNAIRE - May 22, 2006- =========================================================================== INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE CSES QUESTIONNAIRE: ( 1) Following these instructions, this document is comprised of three sections: ))) CSES MODULE 3 QUESTIONNAIRE: ADMINISTRATIVE VARIABLES The "Administrative Variables" section is a list of common administrative variables that, if possible, should be provided at the time data are deposited with the CSES Secretariat. ))) CSES MODULE 3 QUESTIONNAIRE: CSES MODULE This is the CSES Module itself, a common module of survey questions for researchers to include in their national post-election survey. The CSES Module is intended to be administered exactly as it is specified in this document. ))) CSES MODULE 3 QUESTIONNAIRE: DEMOGRAPHIC VARIABLES Collaborators are asked to provide data on background (demographic) characteristics of respondents, coded to an agreed upon set of standards as indicated in this section. There is great international variation in the ways that collaborators will go about soliciting information on the background characteristics of their respondents. The objective here is not standardization of the way collaborators ask these background questions, but instead, standardization to a common, cross-national scheme for coding each variable. ( 2) The CSES Module is intended to be administered in its entirety as a single, uninterrupted block of questions. In most cases, the CSES Module is included as part of a larger study. For reliable comparisons to be made, it is important that any additional items investigators may wish to include do not interrupt the CSES Module. ( 3) The CSES module should be administered as a post-election interview. ( 4) Where the CSES module is included in a larger study, to ensure that question-ordering effects are minimized, it is most preferable for the CSES Module to be administered at the beginning of the survey instrument. Where this is not possible, collaborators should be sensitive to the effects questions asked immediately prior to the module may have. ( 5) NOTES often precede the question TEXT, and provide instructions for the administration of the item. Where no question TEXT is provided, collaborators should provide documentation of the question used. ( 6) The response options that should be read to the respondent are contained in the body of the question. ( 7) Where lower-case words appear in brackets [ ] collaborators should select the words that are most appropriate. For example: [party/presidential candidate] ...indicates that either the word "party" or the phrase "presidential candidate" should be read, but not both. ( 8) Where upper-case words appear in brackets [ ] collaborators should substitute the words that are most appropriate. For example: [COUNTRY] ...should be replaced with the name of the country where the election was held (perhaps "Canada" or "the Philippines"). Another example: [NUMBER OF YEARS BETWEEN THE PREVIOUS AND THE PRESENT ELECTION OR CHANGE IN GOVERNMENT] ...should be replaced with a number that indicates the amount of years that have passed between the previous election and either the current election or recent change in government. ( 9) Phrases that appear in parentheses ( ) contain words that are optional -- that collaborators (or their interviewers) can decide to read or not read to respondents as needed. (10) Several of the items in the CSES Module follow skip patterns that are noted by braces < >. When a question is inappropriate for a particular respondent because of the skip pattern, code the response 'MISSING'. (11) Respondents who volunteer the response "Don't know" (or who refuse to answer a question) should be coded appropriately. Interviewers should accept this response and should not probe for additional information or force a respondent to use one of the response categories provided in the text of the question. (12) Showcards may be helpful for the administration of some questions. For this reason, a Respondent Booklet is available for download from the CSES website. This Respondent Booklet contains showcards for select questions. (13) Special care should be taken in the administration of the Vote Choice items. For countries where voters have two votes for the same institution (e.g., parallel and mixed member proportional systems; double ballot systems), please ensure that both/all votes are supplied. For countries where more than one institution is elected on the same day (e.g., president and legislature) using different votes, please ensure all votes are supplied. For countries using preferential systems (e.g., STV, AV) please provide first and second preference vote. (14) For questions asking about parties, collaborators should be advised that they may add one or several party blocs to a list of individual parties if they feel that it will be difficult for respondents to recognize individual parties. (15) Collaborators in the Comparative Study of Electoral Systems shall adhere to the following standards of data quality: a. Mode of interviewing: Interviews should be conducted face-to-face, unless local circumstances dictate that telephone or mail surveys will produce higher quality data. b. Timing of interviewing: We strongly recommend that collaborators in the Comparative Study of Electoral Systems conduct their interviews in the weeks following their national election. Out of concern for data quality, data collection should be completed in as timely a fashion as possible. In the event of a runoff election, interviewing shall be conducted after the first round election. The date of interview shall be provided for each respondent. c. Placement of module in post-election questionnaire: The questionnaire module should be asked as a single, uninterrupted block of questions. We leave it to each collaborator to select an appropriate location for the module in their national survey instrument. Collaborators should take steps to ensure that questions asked immediately prior to the questionnaire module do not contaminate the initial questions in the module. Collaborators are also free to select an appropriate place in their survey instrument to ask the turnout, vote choice, and demographic questions. d. Population to be sampled: National samples should be drawn from all age-eligible citizens. When non-citizens (or other non-eligible respondents) are included in the sampled, a variable should be provided to permit the identification of those non-eligible respondents. When a collaborator samples from those persons who appear on voter registration lists, the collaborator should quantify the estimated degree of discrepancy between this population and the population of all age-eligible citizens. e. Sampling procedures: We strongly encourage the use of random samples, with random sampling procedures used at all stages of the sampling process. Collaborators should provide detailed documentation of their sampling practices. f. Sample Size: We strongly recommend that no fewer than 1,000 age-eligible respondents be interviewed. g. Interviewer training: Collaborators should pre-test their survey instrument and should train interviewers in the administration of the questionnaire. The Planning Committee will provide each collaborator with documentation that clarifies the purposes and objectives of each item and with rules with respect to probing "don't know" responses. h. Field practices: Collaborators should make every effort to ensure a high response rate. Investigators should be diligent in their effort to reach respondents not interviewed on the initial contact with the household and should be diligent in their effort to convert respondents who initially refuse to participate in the study. Data on the number of contact attempts, the number of contacts with sample persons, and special persuasion or conversion efforts undertaken should be coded for each respondent. i. Strategies for translation (and back-translation): Each collaborator should translate the questionnaire module into their native language(s). To ensure the equivalence of the translation, collaborators shall perform an independent re-translation of the questionnaire back into English. Collaborators engaged in translation of the questionnaire module into the same language (e.g., Spanish, French, English, German, and Portuguese) should collaborate on the translation. =========================================================================== ))) CSES MODULE 3 QUESTIONNAIRE: ADMINISTRATIVE VARIABLES =========================================================================== NOTES: The "Administrative Variables" section is a list of common administrative variables that, if possible, should be provided at the time data are deposited with the CSES Secretariat.
