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: 1060
There were different stages in the sampling procedure: Three stages: Subsamples (regions), municipalities and local communities. Montenegro: Northern Montenegro, Central Montenegro and Southern Montenegro. In order to get the average data for Montenegro should be multiplied by 0.077 (0.08, rounded). In each subsample, municipalities were chosen on the basis of cumulative frequencies, using tables of random numbers. In Montenegro all 21 municipalities. Inside each municipality, local communities were chosen randomly (an election station as a survey point with 20 respondents). A systematic selection was applied from the voters registration lists, starting from a random beginning (person under No. 2) and taking each tenth voter. For each 20 respondents, the plan ensured 20 reserves, chosen in the same way. Unfortunately, during conducting the field study an alternative procedure had to be used in 7% of points (each third house in the point, picking up a person having the closest birthday), because in eight points the registration lists were incomplete or unavailable. Otherwise, the interviewers were obliged to make at least three visits in order to find the persons selected from the lists in the sample points. Substitution was permitted. If three visits were done without success (also, if respondent was moved, permanently out of place, died, unknown or seriously ill), reserve was used (next number on the list of voters)
Remarks about sampling:
- Final numbers of clusters or sapling points: 53
- Sample unit from office sampling: Named individual Election lists in local communities; Systematic choice, random beginning, each tenth citizen inside the last stage (local community)
Response rate Montenegro: 0.852
Modalities of non-response in Montenegro:
- Reject to be interviewed 5.2%
- Seriously ill and persons at hospitals 3.2%
- Absent because of travel 5.7%
- Moved to some other place, changed addresses 2.2%
- Busy persons (work shifts, on board, etc) 3.4%
- Died 0.2%
- Unknown persons 0.4%
- Other reasons 2.1%
- TOTAL 22.4%
Note: The percentages are expressed in relation to a number of respondents in the sample, that is, 1060 in Montenegro. Response rate based on formula: N/N+ (R+I+B+T), where: N = Number of accomplished interviews R = Number of refusals I = Number of ill people B = Number of busy people T = Number of people absent because of travel.
No weighting variable was added. All independent variables hit within the population parameters (with deviation less than SE, that is, 3%), except for the percentage of housewives in Montenegro (deviation of plus 5 percentage points). However, all these deviations of sampling measures do not deserve applying any weighting procedure. Weighting procedure is needed only for expressing data for FRY
Survey instrument
The WVS questionnaire was translated from the English questionnaire by a specialist translator. The translated questionnaire was not back-translated into English and the translated questionnaire was not pre-tested. It was used the French version based on the V216. There have been some country specific questions included such us V77 Roma instead of Jews V218 (SEE Codebook) V226: 1=2; 2=3; 3=4; 4=5; 5&6=7;7,8&9=8; 0.99=9 V243 (SEE Codebook) V245 (SEE Codebook). 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.

The fieldwork was conducted by 46 interviewers in Montenegro. The majority of them are B.A. psychologists (about two thirds), others are sociologists, social workers, political scientists, and specialized pedagogues. The interviewers observed the study, that is, the instrument as a very long and difficult for processing, but, at the same time, as very interesting, important and motivating for the interviewees. Control of interviewers' work consisted of three standard procedures: phone control of 10% cases, mail control of 20% cases (still not quite completed), and personal visits to 10% respondents. No indications of any serious irregularities were found until now. Interviewers were paid according to performance.
