POLICY |
Series Information: | This series of quadrennial studies was
designed to investigate the opinions and attitudes of the general public and a
select group of opinion leaders (or elites) on matters relating to United
States foreign policy and to define the parameters of public opinion within
which decision-makers must operate. For purposes of this series, opinion
leaders are defined as individuals in positions of leadership in government,
academia, business and labor, the media, religious institutions, special
interest groups, and private foreign policy organizations. In two separate
surveys, both general public and elite respondents are questioned regarding
various foreign policy problems, such as the relationship between domestic and
foreign policy priorities, the roles of various individuals and institutions in
the creation of foreign policy, and the appropriate responses of the United
States to actions by the (former) Soviet Union and other countries that vary
from study to study. Other questions asked of both groups cover economic aid to
other nations, military aid/selling military equipment to other nations, the
role of the United States in world affairs, and the use of United States troops
in other parts of the world. Respondents from the general public are also asked
to rate various foreign countries and American and foreign leaders on a
feeling-thermometer scale. |

Matters, 1. United States |
Abstract: | This study is part of a quadrennial series
designed to investigate the opinions and attitudes of the general public and a
select group of opinion leaders (or elites) on matters relating to foreign
policy and to define the parameters of public opinion within which
decision-makers must operate. Both general public and elite respondents were
questioned regarding the biggest problems facing the United States today,
spending levels for various federal government programs, the role of Congress
in determining foreign policy, the impact of foreign policy on things such as
prices and unemployment, and the Clinton Administration's handling of various
problems, such as overall foreign policy, overall trade policy, immigration,
and relations with Latin America, Japan, Russia, Cuba, Vietnam, and the Middle
East. Other topics include government reactions to situations in Bosnia, North
Korea, Haiti, Cuba, Rwanda, and the Middle East, the importance of various
countries to America's vital interests, possible threats/adversaries to the
United States in coming years, NATO and keeping troops in Western Europe, the
military role of Japan and Germany, the economic unification of western Europe,
the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, the North American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA), and the illegal drug problem. In addition, the elites were asked
several questions about their political party affiliation and the strength of
that affiliation. Demographic characteristics such as religious preference,
marital status, employment status, household composition, education, age,
Hispanic origin, race, sex, and income were gathered for the general population
respondents only. |

for this survey was designed to produce an approximation of the adult civilian
population, eighteen years and older, living in the United States, except those
persons in institutions such as prisons or hospitals. The design of the sample
is that of a replicated, probability sample down to the block level in the case
of urban areas, and to segments of townships in the case of rural areas.
Approximately one hundred and eighty sampling locations were used for this
survey. The sample design includes stratification by these seven size-of-
community strata, using 1980 Census data: (a) incorporated cities of population
1,000,000 and over; (b) incorporated cities of population 250,000 to 999,999;
(c) incorporated cities of population 50,000 to 249,999; (d) urbanized places
not included in (a)-(c); (e) cities over 2,500 population outside of urbanized
areas; (f) towns and villages with less than 2,500 population; and (g) rural
places not included within town boundaries. Each of these strata are further
stratified into four geographic regions: East, Midwest, South and West. Within
each city size-regional stratum, the population is arrayed in geographic order
and zoned into equal sized groups of sampling units. Pairs of localities are
selected in each zone, with probability of selection and each locality
proportional to its population size in the 1990 census, producing two
replicated samples of localities. Separately for each survey, within each
subdivision so selected for which block statistics are available, a sample of
blocks or block clusters is drawn with probability of selection proportional to
the number of dwelling units. In all other subdivisions or areas, blocks or
segments are drawn at random or with equal probability. In each cluster of
blocks and each segment so selected, a randomly selected starting point is
designated on the interviewer's map of the area. Starting at this point,
interviewers are required to follow a given direction in the selection of
households until their assignment is completed. Interviewing was conducted at
times when women, in general, are most likely to be at home, which means on
weekends, or if on weekdays, after 4:00 P.M.. Allowance for persons not at home
is made by a "times-at-home" weighting procedure [see Politz, A. and Simmons,
W., "An Attempt to Get the "Not at Homes" into the Sample without Callbacks",
JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION, Volume 44, (March, 1949), pp.
9-31.except for those persons in institutions such as prisons or hospitals]
rather than by "call-backs". This procedure is a standard method for reducing
the sample bias that would otherwise result from under-representation in the
sample of persons who are difficult to find at home. The final sample of
completed interviews was weighted to bring the demographic characteristics of
the sample (i.e., age, race, education, and region) into alignment with the
most recently available estimates of the demographic characteristics of the
population of adults. Demographic estimates of this population were taken from
the Bureau of the Census Current Population Survey (March, 1988). The sampling
and weighting procedures described are designed to allow projection of results
to the population of civilian adults eighteen years and older, living in the
United States. DESIGN OF THE SAMPLE: OPINION LEADERS. The opinion leader sample
of the Chicago Council's study on foreign relations was designed to replicate
opinion leader samples used in previous years. Wherever possible, the
directories used for names, and the number of names used for each type of
opinion leader modeled the 1990 sample design. The outline below describes each
elite sub-sample. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES; 30 INTERVIEWS with Representatives.
All Representatives names were used from a comprehensive Gallup-in-house list.
(If the House member was not available the interview was conducted with the
legislative assistant responsible for foreign affairs). SENATE: 22 INTERVIEWS
with Senators. All Representatives names were used from a comprehensive
Gallup-in-house list.(If the Senator was not available the interview was
selected with the legislative assistant responsible for foreign affairs).
ADMINISTRATION: 25 INTERVIEWS with assistant secretaries. The following
directory was used to select names: 1993 Federal Staff Directory published by
Staff Directories, Ltd. Personnel were selected from international offices at
the following: The White House Office Office of Management and Budget National
Security Office Office of the United States Trade Representative Department of
Agriculture Department of Commerce Department of Defense Department of Energy
Department of Justice Department of State Department of Transportation
Department of the Treasury Agency for International Development Nuclear
Regulatory Commission U.S. International Trade Commission Veterans
Administration BUSINESS: 63 INTERVIEWS were completed with vice presidents in
charge of international affairs. The top industrial corporations in the Fortune
500 list were included in the sample frame, and respondents' names were found
in the following publication: Corporate Yellow Book, published by Monitor
Publishing Company, summer 1993. MEDIA: 58 INTERVIEWS with television and radio
news directors, network newscasters, newspaper editors and columnists, news
magazine editors and columnists. The following publications were used: 1. News
Media Yellow Book of Washington and New York, published by Monitor Publishing
Company, summer 1993. 2. Editor and publisher International Yearbook 1993,
published by Editor and Publisher Company. LABOR LEADERS: 32 INTERVIEWS were
conducted with presidents of the largest labor unions. The following directory
was used to obtain the sample: "Labor Unions, Association, and Federation,"
Volume 1, part 2, section 15, Encyclopedia of Associations; published by Gale
Research Inc., 1990. EDUCATORS: 64 INTERVIEWS were conducted with presidents
and faculty who teach in the area of foreign affairs from a list of
universities used in previous Chicago Council on Foreign Affairs studies.
RELIGIOUS LEADERS: 47 INTERVIEWS were conducted with religious leaders
representing all faiths, proportionate to the number of Americans who worship
each faith. The following directory was used to obtain names: Yearbook of
American and Canadian Churches, published by Abingdon Press Nashville, 1993.
SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS: 22 INTERVIEWS were conducted with a purposively drawn
sample of presidents from large special interest groups relevant to foreign
policy. The following directory was used to obtain names: National Trade and
Professional Associations, published by Columbia Book Inc. 1994. PRIVATE
FOREIGN POLICY ORGANIZATIONS: 20 INTERVIEWS were conducted with presidents from
major private foreign policy organizations. The following directories were used
to obtain names: The Capital Source "The Who's Who, What, Where in Washington:
Think Tanks", published by the National Journal Inc., Spring 1994. SAMPLING
TOLERANCES: In interpreting survey results, it should be borne in mind that all
sample surveys are subject to sampling error, that is, the extent to which the
results may differ from what would be obtained if the whole population had been
interviewed. The size of such sampling errors depends largely on the number of
interviews. The following tables may be used in estimating the sampling error
of any percentage in this report. The computed allowances have taken into
account the effect of the sample design upon sampling error. They may be
interpreted as indicating the range (plus or minus the figure shown) within
which the results of repeated samplings in the same time period could be
expected to vary, 95 percent of the time, assuming the same sampling
procedures, the same interviewers, and the same questionnaire. The first table
shows how much allowance should be made for the sampling error of a percentage:
Recommended Allowance for Sampling Error of a Percentage, in
Percentage Points (at 95 in 100 confidence level, i.e. the chances are 95 in
100 that the sampling error is not larger than the figures shown. )GENERAL PUBLIC | Sample size 1662 | Sample size 1300 | Sample size 1000 | Sample size 700 | Sample size 400 | Sample size 100 |

we go to row "percentages near 30" in the table and go across to the column
headed "1000". The number at this point is 3, which means that the 33 percent
obtained in the sample is subject to a sampling error of plus or minus 3
points. Another way of saying it is that very probably (95 chances of 100) the
true figure would be somewhere between 30 and 36, with the most likely figure
the 33 obtained. Sampling error is less applicable in the opinion leader study,
since this study is more or less a census of the nation's opinion leaders.
Sampling error tables are provided below, for the opinion leader study, based
on the assumption that the study were a pure random sample of a "population" of
opinion leaders. Based on this assumption, the sampling error is higher for the
opinion leader sample which includes a smaller number of respondents than the
general population study. As shown in the table below, if a reported percentage
is 33 percent for 380 respondents, the percentage would be interpreted with a
sampling error of plus or minus 5 points.
Recommended Allowance for Sampling Error of a Percentage, in
Percentage Points (at 95 in 100 confidence level, i.e. the chances are 95 in
100 that the sampling error is not larger than the figures shown. )OPINION LEADERS | Sample size 380 | Sample size 300 | Sample size 200 | Sample size 100 | Sample size 50 | Sample size 25 |

example, men and women, the question arises as to how large a difference
between them must be before one can be reasonably sure that it reflects a real
difference. In the tables below, the number of points which must be allowed for
in such comparisons is indicated. Two tables are provided. One is for
percentages near 20 or 80; the other for percentages near 50. For percentages
in between, the error to be allowed for is between those shown in the two
tables.
TABLE A: GENERAL PUBLIC: Percentages near 20 and 80 - Recommended
Allowance for Sampling Error of the Difference In Percentage Points (at 95 in
100 confidence level)Size of sample | 1660 | 1300 | 1000 | 700 | 400 | 100 |
---|
1660 | 4 | | | | | | 1300 | 4 | 4 | | | | | 1000 | 4 | 4 | 5 | | | | 700 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | | | 400 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 7 | | 100 | 10 | 11 | 11 | 11 | 11 | 14 |
TABLE B: GENERAL PUBLIC: Percentages near 50 and 50 Size of sample | 1660 | 1300 | 1000 | 700 | 400 | 100 |
---|
1660 | 4 | | | | | | 1300 | 5 | 5 | | | | | 1000 | 5 | 5 | 6 | | | | 700 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 7 | | | 400 | 17 | 7 | 8 | 8 | 9 | | 100 | 13 | 13 | 13 | 14 | 14 | 18 | Here is an example of how the tables would be used: Let us say
that 50 percent of men responded a certain way and 40 percent of women respond
that way also, for a difference of 10 percentage points between them. Can we
say with any assurance that the 10-point difference reflects a real difference
between men and women on the question? The general population sample contains
approximately 700 men and 500 women. Since the percentages are near 50, we
consult Table B, and since the two samples are about 700 persons each, we look
for the number 7 here. This means that the allowance for error should be 7
points, and that in concluding that the percentage among men is somewhere
between 3 and 17 points higher than the percentage among women we should be
wrong only about 5 percent of the time. In other words, we can conclude with
considerable confidence that a difference exists in the direction observed and
that it amounts to at least 3 percentage points. If, in another case, men's
responses amount to 22 percent, say, and women's 24 percent, we consult Table A
because these percentages are near 20. We look for the number in the column
headed 700 and see that it is 5. Obviously, then, the two-point difference is
inconclusive. |
