- Description
- The British Election Study, 2005: Face-to-Face Survey comprises the cross-section surveys conducted before and after the 2005 general election. All original key questions that had been part of the BES series since 1964 were included, as well as the questions on ideology, economic perceptions and issue positions that were introduced after 1979. Further questions added for the BES 2001, to explain turnout and explore attitudes towards elections, parties, and the democratic process, were again fielded in 2005.
Topics covered within the pre- and post-election surveys included electoral issues, party identification and support, party positions on taxation and expenditure, voting intentions and behaviour, opinions on party leaders, trust in British institutions, contact with local politicians, attitudes to the European Union, attitudes to the Iraq war, social trust, beliefs and value, social and political attitudes, and demographic characteristics.
The 'one-year-out' internet follow-up survey asked respondents about political issues, attitudes to and opinions of political parties and leaders, voting, governance of Britain since the 2005 election, and gathered demographic details such as age, gender and social class.
