Description
The Levada Center has been conducting omnibus surveys of the Russian population on a regular basis. This data collection includes three questions about the desired political and economic system and the preference concerning great power status or wealth for Russia (plus standard socio-demographic data). In total this collection includes the respective data from 51 separate surveys conducted from 1996 to 2021.
The file "DocuDataColletion" documents the questions included in the dataset and provides information about the random-sample questionnaire-based nationally representative polls conducted as omnibus surveys. The original data file is in Russian, but this file includes translations into English of all questions and answer options.
Included in this data collection are the relevant questions from the Levada omnibus surveys copied into one file. The SPSS file (.sav) is the original file provided by the Levada Center. It has been exported into an Excel file. The content of the respective xlsx-file should be identical with the original sav-file. In addition, the data collection contains the file “main results” which for each of the three questions presents the simple distribution of answer options over time (i.e. for each survey) in a graph.
