World Values Survey Wave 4 1999-2004 covers 41 countries and societies around the world and more than 60,000 respondents. The series includes the following waves:
Wave 6 (2010-2014)
Wave 5 (2005-2009)
Wave 4 (1999-2004)
Wave 3 (1995-1998)
Wave 2 (1990-1994)
Wave 1 (1981-1984)
The World Values Survey (www.worldvaluessurvey.org) is a global network of social scientists studying changing values and their impact on social and political life, led by an international team of scholars, with the WVS association and secretariat headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.
The survey, which started in 1981, seeks to use the most rigorous, high-quality research designs in each country. The WVS consists of nationally representative surveys conducted in almost 100 countries which contain almost 90 percent of the world’s population, using a common questionnaire. The WVS is the largest non-commercial, cross-national, time series investigation of human beliefs and values ever executed, currently including interviews with almost 400,000 respondents. Moreover the WVS is the only academic study covering the full range of global variations, from very poor to very rich countries, in all of the world’s major cultural zones.
The WVS seeks to help scientists and policy makers understand changes in the beliefs, values and motivations of people throughout the world. Thousands of political scientists, sociologists, social psychologists, anthropologists and economists have used these data to analyze such topics as economic development, democratization, religion, gender equality, social capital, and subjective well-being. These data have also been widely used by government officials, journalists and students, and groups at the World Bank have analyzed the linkages between cultural factors and economic development.

Sampling
Sample size: 720
We used as structured-random sample technique. We classified our universe (in the following ordered stages) according to geography (north, south, east, west, metropolitan area of SJ and central mountain region), cities, socio-economic status of neighbourhoods and households. The adult person in each household was selected according to Kish method. There were not clusters or sampling points. The sampled unit we got from the office sampling was the household and selection method that was used to identify a respondent was Kish grid, or the adult over 18 years old having the next birthdates. Stratification factors were used: Geography of the Island, Cities, and socioeconomic status. It is important to consider that we re-visited some households up to two more times.
Remarks about sampling:
- Final numbers of clusters or sapling points: No clusters
- Sample unit from office sampling: Household
There were some limitations in the sample. We got 72 % response rate, which is considered good in politically oriented surveys in the Island.
- Total number of starting names/addresses: 950
- Addresses which could not be traced at all: 47
- Addresses established as empty, demolished or containing no private dwelling: 31
- There were selected respondent too sick/incapacitated to participate: 7
- There were selected respondent away during the survey period: 13
- No contact at selected address: 23
- No contact with selected person: 39
- Refusal at selected address:40
- Proxy refusal (on behalf of selected respondent): n.a
- Personal refusal by selected respondent: 40
- Full productivity interview:752
No weighting variable was added.
Survey instrument
The WVS questionnaire was not translated from the English. There have not been any optional WVS questions and also country-specific questions were not included. The sample was designed to be representative of the entire adult population, i.e. 18 years and older, of your country. The lower age cut-off for the sample was 18 and there was not any upper age cut-off for the sample.
