This round of Eurobarometer surveys diverged from the Standard Eurobarometer measures and queried respondents on (1) nuclear energy and safety, and several public health issues including (2) electromagnetic fields, (3) alcohol and smoking habits, and passive smoking, (4) organ donation, and (5) personal state of health and prevention. For the first topic, the survey queried respondents about their knowledge of and opinions regarding nuclear power and safety, the regulation of its use, their relationship with nuclear power, and nuclear energy as an energy source. For the second topic, respondents were asked to identify sources of electromagnetic fields, potential health risks associated with electromagnetic fields, and the entities protecting them from these risks. For the third topic, respondents were asked about their alcohol consumption, the effects of price fluctuation on alcohol purchases, knowledge of blood alcohol content, and liquor control laws. In addition, respondents were queried about their smoking habits, their efforts to quit smoking, their use of tobacco cessation products, and about passive smoking and the ban of smoking in public places. For the fourth topic, respondents were asked their views about organ donation, whether they have discussed this topic with family, their willingness to donate an organ after death, and their support for and use of an organ donor card.
