Public Opinion in Tajikistan: 1996
This first IFES-sponsored survey in Tajikistan analyzes the opinion environment in the country – the views of the public on political and economic developments, independence, government, civil society and organizations, and information sources. Findings are based on the IFES nationwide opinion survey fielded in Tajikistan from November to December 1996. The Executive Summary consists of major findings providing an overview of the survey data. The Appendix includes the full question text and the marginal results in tabular form. The IFES-sponsored survey was fielded in Tajikistan between November 25 and December 13, 1996. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with a sample of 1,500 adults (18 years and older); the sample was of a stratified random probability design (the margin of error is ±2.5% for this kind of sample). Fieldwork and data processing were conducted by the Sharq Sociological Center of Dushanbe. QEV Analytics, a Washington-based research firm, developed the weights and conducted the tabulations. The design of the sample and the weighting ensured that respondents represent the adult national population of Tajikistan and, therefore, the findings accurately reflect the opinions and attitudes of the public in Tajikistan.
