Notes

* A question about membership in these organizations was asked in the 1981 and 1990 surveys, but it had a different format, asking first if one "belonged to" any of these organizations; and then, if one did unpaid work for any of them. The format used in 1995 tends to elicit higher levels of claimed "membership," both active and inactive.
