ASIAN BAROMETER SURVEY OF DEMOCRACY, GOVERNANCE AND DEVELOPMENT

Note: (NEW): Added or revised item GBS: Global Barometer Module


Interview No. ___________
INTRODUCTION: Good morning/afternoon/evening. I am ___ from [name of institution]. We are conducting a public opinion survey in your area today. We are
doing research on the views of citizens in [country] about how the country is governed and how the economy is managed. Every person over the age of 18 in our
country has an equal chance of being included in this study. Your household has been chosen by chance. We would like you to answer questions about your
personal views. The interview will take about 60 minutes. We will not record your name or any identifying information about you on the questionnaire. So no one
will know who gave which answers to our questions. There is no risk to you in participating in the survey. There is also no benefit to you in participating in the
survey. But if you answer our questions, you will help us understand how the public feels about issues facing the country today. Your participation in the survey is
voluntary. If there are any questions you don't want to answer you don't have to answer them. And you can stop participating in the survey at any time. If you
have any questions about the survey in the future, here is a card with the phone number of a person whom you can call at our organization's headquarters. He/she
can answer any questions that you might have. Your assistance will be very much appreciated. Are you willing to start answering our questions?
