Survey of Economic Differences in American Society This national survey examined people's views on the educational and economic success of different groups in American society and the role of the government in handling these different needs. The survey focuses on how various groups of people are getting along in the current economic climate. The survey was initially conducted in the Fall of 2003, and respondents were re-interviewed in the Spring of 2004. The study was conducted for Professors Leonie Huddy and Stanley Feldman of the Stony Brook University Department of Political Science, and was funded by the National Science Foundation.
Reactions to the Iraq War This survey was conducted in three phases, the first of which was conducted in the Fall of 2002, and assessed national opinion about possible US military action in Iraq. The survey was based on re-interviews with a sample of nationally representative adults who had been interviewed after 9/11 (as part of the national survey of Public Reactions to the events of September 11 project), and a sample of new individuals. The second and third phases, conducted in the Spring of 2003, consisted of re-interviews with respondents either prior to or after the invasion of Iraq, and assessed national opinion about the developing situation. The survey, conducted for Professors George Marcus at Williams College, Michael MacKuen at the University of North Carolina, Leonie Huddy, Stanley Feldman and Charles Taber at Stony Brook University, and funded by the National Science Foundation, was designed to assess how specific feelings and thoughts about terrorism and military action influence support for US national security policy.
Nationwide Survey of Public Reactions to the events of September 11 This survey monitored public reactions to the events of September 11 by following nation-wide public opinion on a weekly basis with a rolling cross-section survey design, beginning early October, 2001 through the Spring of 2002. The study, funded by the National Science Foundation, examined how public opinion changes over time on government policies concerning civil liberties, immigration and overseas military intervention along with changes in the perceived threat of terrorism. The study was conducted for Professors Leonie Huddy, Stanley Feldman, Charles Taber and Gallya Lahav of the Department of Political Science at Stony Brook University, and funded by the National Science Foundation.
Newsday Series of Public Opinion Surveys of Long Island and Queens Residents A series of surveys conducted with the residents of Nassau, Suffolk and Queens Counties, assessed respondents’ opinions on a number of timely issues including the economy, consumer confidence, taxes and quality of life issues on Long Island. The surveys were conducted between 2000 and 2001 for Newsday, the Long Island daily newspaper, who published a number of articles based on the findings.
Survey of New York Sate Residents' Political Attitudes A public opinion study of a random sample of New York State residents explored attitudes towards race and other social and political issues. The survey was conducted in the summer of 2000 for Dr. Leonie Huddy and Dr. Stanley Feldman of the Department of Political Science at Stony Brook University.
Survey of Political Ideology of Long Island Residents This study gauged the opinions of a random sample of Long Island residents on a variety of political and social issues, as well as subjects' political ideology. A brief follow up study was conducted to examine how opinions change or remain the same over time. The study was conducted in the Spring of 2000 for Dr. Howard Lavine and Susan Tabrizi, a doctoral candidate, both of the Stony Brook University Department of Political Science.
Public Perception Survey of Long Island Sound Watershed Residents The goal of this telephone survey was to collect information from residents of the watershed areas affecting Long Island Sound in both New York and Connecticut regarding their environmental attitudes, knowledge, and behavior. Over 1200 interviews were conducted in the Spring of 2006 with randomly selected adult residents of the coastal and watershed areas surrounding Long Island Sound. The survey was funded by a grant from the Long Island Sound Study through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Where Do We Grow From Here: Land Use on Long Island This telephone survey of residents of Long Island and the Northern and New Jersey Metropolitan suburbs examined respondents' views on issues and proposals concerning affordable middle class and starter housing and preservation of the area’s remaining open space. Interviews with over 1700 randomly selected respondents were conducted during the Summer of 2004. The survey was conducted for the Long Island Index, and funded by the Rauch Foundation.
At the Breaking Point? Taxation and Governance on Long Island This telephone survey for the Long Island Index continues to track the opinions of Long Island residents on important regional issues including taxation and quality of services.
