The 2010 Australian election study: The dynamics of political choice

除了提供对澳大利亚投票行为一般模式的深入了解外，2010年澳大利亚选举研究(AES)还将详细、客观地介绍选民在2010年联邦选举中如何以及为什么做出决定。自1987年以来，澳大利亚每次联邦选举后都会进行一系列不间断的全国选举调查，2010年的AES是其中的一项。这些调查为超越对政治行为的印象主义描述提供了无与伦比的资源。这项调查将使研究人员能够确定公民对政治和产生政府的过程的看法，并了解大众政治态度在四分之一个世纪里如何以及为什么发生变化。

In addition to providing an in-depth understanding of general patterns of Australian voting behaviour, the 2010 Australian Election Study (AES) will provide a detailed, objective account of how and why voters made up their minds in the 2010 federal election. The 2010 AES adds to the unbroken series of national election surveys conducted after each Australian federal election since 1987. These surveys provide an unrivalled resource for moving beyond impressionistic accounts of political behaviour. The survey will enable researchers to determine what citizens think of politics and the processes that produce a government, and to understand how and why mass political attitudes have changed over a quarter of a century.
