About the AmericasBarometer 2010 round of surveys
This round has the broadest coverage to date of the AmericasBarometer, including 26 countries and over 44,000 interviews. In this round we have added Suriname and Trinidad & Tobago to the 24 countries included in the 2008 round. All of the data are available in the annual subscription to AmericasBarometer in SPSS and STATA along with the questionnaires for each country (the core module is standard for all countries, but in each country country-specific items were asked) and technical information.
This round includes a special series of items on the impact of the economic crisis, as well as new or expanded items covering respondent personality, attitudes toward the role of the state, and a more refined measurement of religious affiliation and adherence. In most countries the sample size was again 1,500, but in Ecuador and Bolivia it was 3,000, and in Brazil 2,800 (with better regional coverage than in the past).
