Summary:

The Eurobarometer series is a unique cross-national and cross-temporal survey program conducted on behalf of the European Commission. These surveys regularly monitor public opinion in the European Union (EU) member countries and consist of standard modules and special topic modules. The standard modules address attitudes towards European unification, institutions and policies, measurements for general socio-political orientations, as well as respondent and household demographics. The special topic modules address such topics as agriculture, education, natural environment and resources, public health, public safety and crime, and science and technology. This round of Eurobarometer surveys covered the following special topics: (1) Climate Change, (2) Agriculture, (3) Healthcare, and (4) Physical Activity. Respondents' opinions were collected regarding how serious an issue they considered climate change, who within the EU is responsible for addressing it, and what personal actions they have taken to fight climate change. Respondents were also questioned about the importance of agriculture in the EU, their opinions on agricultural policies such as the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), the role of farmers in the EU, and the labeling of the place of origin for meat and dairy products. Additional questions were asked regarding patient safety, the quality of health care in the respondent's country compared to other countries, information sources used to assess the quality of hospitals, if the respondent or a family member had a surgical procedure, and whether the respondent or a family member experienced an adverse event when receiving health care. Lastly, respondents were queried about their level of physical activity, including how often and how vigorously they participated in activities, their opinions of exercise, how much time they spend sitting on an average day, any issues that prevent them from being physically active, and whether they volunteer in sporting activities. Demographic and other background information collected includes age, gender, nationality, marital status, occupation, age when stopped full-time education, household composition, ownership of various goods, difficulties in paying bills, level in society, and Internet use. In addition, country-specific data includes type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries). Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR36627.v1
