This data collection represents a loose collaboration between Georgetown University's Center for Democracy and Civil Society (CDACS) and the European Social Survey (ESS). The data in Part 1 are from the United States Citizenship, Involvement, Democracy (CID) Survey, which was conducted between mid-May and mid-July of 2005, and consists of in-person interviews with a representative sample of 1,001 Americans who responded to an 80-minute questionnaire. The CID survey is a study of American civic engagement, social capital, and democracy in comparative perspective, and it provides perspective on citizen participation in both the public and private realms. The CID survey is integrated with several elements of a module from the 2002 version of the ESS, which was administered in 22 European countries. In addition to the replicated questions from the ESS, the CID survey includes questions related to the themes of social capital, activities in formal clubs and organizations, informal social networks and activities, personal networks (strong and weak ties), the composition and diversity of ties and associations, trust (in other people, the community, institutions, and politicians), local democracy and participation, democratic values, political citizenship, social citizenship, views on immigration and diversity, political identification, ideology, mobilization and action, and tolerance (concerning views and attitudes, least-liked groups, and racial sterotypes).

In order to facilitate and encourage the common use of several key variables, and to help individual users to avoid having to create certain scales and indices, the data in Part 1, Citizenship, Involvement, Democracy Survey Data (US Only), also include the following constructed variables: generalized trust, political action, party identification, participation in voluntary organizations, citizenship norms, the diversity of social networks, racial prejudice/negative stereotypes, national pride, attitudes toward immigrants, and demographic factors.

The data in Part 2, 2002 European Social Survey (ESS) Data Integrated with US Data, comprise the responses from the 2002 ESS merged with the responses from the US CID, but only contains the questions common to both the US CID and the 2002 ESS (without any constructed variables). The central aim of the ESS is to measure and explain how people's social values, cultural norms, and behavior patterns are distributed, the way in which they differ within and between nations, and the direction and speed at which they are changing. Data collection for the ESS takes place every two years, by means of face-to-face interviews of around an hour in duration.

Demographic variables for Part 1 and Part 2 include race, gender, age, marital status, income, religious preference, and highest level of education.

Eligible respondents were household members, males or females, aged 18 years and older. Respondents were selected using the most recent birthday method. There was no substitution of respondents within households, and there was no substitution across households. The objective of this design was to provide an approximate self-weighting, or epsem, sample of households across the continental United States. The sample was designed specifically to represent the adult population residing in occupied residential housing units, and by definition excluded residents of institutions, group quarters, or those residing on military bases. Please see the codebook for Part 1 for additional information regarding the sampling design. face-to-face interview Although the sample used in Part 1 was designed with an equal probability of selection method sampling, some variations exist (e.g., variations in primary stratum size) resulting in the need for some minor weighting adjustments to achieve equal representation across the sample. Complete weighting information for Part 1 is located in the appendix of the codebook for Part 1. Additional information about the weights used in Part 2 may be obtained via the ESS Web site.

ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection:

Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes. (1) Data for Part 1 and Part 2 contain weight variables. Users are encouraged to read the original documentation provided by the Principal Investigators for a complete description of the weights used in Part 1. This is located in the appendix of the codebook for Part 1. Users may obtain additional information about the weights used in Part 2 via the ESS Web site. Moreover, users may need to weight the data prior to analysis. (2) For additional information concerning the CID Data, please see the CID Web site. The overall response rate was 40.03 percent.
