欧洲人根据其经济表现、政治地位和在国际关系中的作用来评价欧洲共同体。在过去的二十年里，他们对欧洲一体化的谨慎态度升温，特别是当通货膨胀率下降时，随着欧共体在该国贸易中的份额扩大，当欧共体选举和公民投票增加了对共同体的关注时，在某种程度上，当东西方关系缓和时。欧洲人并没有根据他们国家在布鲁塞尔预算中所占的份额来改变他们的支持。因此，尽管丹麦在1992年拒绝了马斯特里赫特条约和冷战的结束，但最近的欧共体改革，增加了货币稳定性，欧洲内部贸易和政治关注，都有可能保持或增加公民对欧共体的支持。这些结果来自一个模型，融合了比较政治经济学与国际关系中的第一个应用程序的汇集横截面和时间序列分析比较研究的民意。
Europeans evaluate the European Community (EC) according to its economic performance, political salience, and role in international relations. During the last two decades their measured attitudes toward European integration warmed especially when inflation rates fell, as the EC share of the country's trade expanded, when EC elections and referenda increased attention to the community, and to some extend during periods when East-West relations were relaxed. Europeans did not vary their support according to their countries' shares of the Brussels budget. Thus, notwithstanding Denmark's 1992 rejection of the Maastricht treaty and the end of the cold war, recent EC reforms that increase monetary stability, intra-European trade and political attention are all likely to maintain or increase citizen support for the EC. These findings result from a model that blends comparative political economy with international relations in one of the first applications of pooled cross-sectional and time-series analysis to the comparative study of public opinion.
