Questionnaire: Dutch Parliamentary Election Studies 2010
The questionnaire was administrated in Dutch.
Browse Dutch Parliamentary Election Studies 2010Response Information
Response Overview
The DPES 2010 consists of several parts: the first wave of interviews (consisting of two independent samples), the second wave of interviews, a self-completion questionnaire, a non-response project alongside the first and second wave and a stimulus project. The first wave of interviews was held before the elections on June 9, 2010. The second wave of interviews with respondents from both samples was held shortly after the elections. The self-completion questionnaire was left behind after the second wave interview and was to be filled in and send back by the respondent. A number of non-respondents of the first and second wave was approached by telephone or sent a written questionnaire.Collection Events
