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: 3401
The different stages in the sampling procedure were:
- Self representative PSU´s (provinces)
- Selected provinces (PPS selection with implied stratification according to income)
- Districts within provinces
- Urban and rural locations within districts (villages selected PPS within rural areas; neighbourhoods and streets selected within urban locations, households identified with systematic random selection, age and gender quotas used in the final selection of individuals).
The final numbers of clusters or sampling points were 22 PSU´s. The sampled unit we got from the office sampling was the address and the selection method that was used to identify a respondent was move on the next address until quota is filled. The quota control was 3 age groups and 2 gender groups were used as quotas. The stratification factors that was used: Per capita gdp. There were some limitations in the sample. It was a quota sample in the last stage as explained above. Overall, the design yields very satisfactory results.
Remarks about sampling:
3 age groups (18-27; 28-40; 41+) and 2 gender groups were used as quota controls. There were stratification factors per capita gdp. A known limitation of the realized sample: this was a quota sample in the last stage as explained. Overall, the design yields very satisfactory results
Survey instrument
The WVS questionnaire was translated from the English questionnaire by a member of the research team. The translated questionnaire was not back-translated into English and also was pre-tested. There were some questions that caused problems when the questionnaire was translated especially questions assuming a church organisation were problematic. Also some of the irrelevant questions were omitted; some were asked nevertheless. There have not been any optional WVS questions and/or items been included, however country-specific questions were included. They were mostly included at the end of the questionnaire but some country specific additions were made to a confidence in institutions and b) neighbours questions. A number of questions were omitted because they sounded totally irrelevant for the local population or because previous surveys indicated that they did not work for this population. 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.
