World Values Survey Great Britain

项目摘要

Values are the basic principles that inform the judgements we make about what is important in life. They are reflected in our attitudes, judgements, standards of behaviour and determine what we care about. Since 1981, the World Values Survey (WVS) has tracked the evolution of values, attitudes, beliefs and behaviour on topics that range from cultural identity, migration, interpersonal trust, empathy and human tolerance to media usage, political interest and views on science, technology and environmental protection. Today, WVS is one of the largest and most used social surveys in the world. Its global coverage, capturing the views of almost 400,000 people in over 110 countries, has enabled the study of interactions between different values across diverse national circumstances and to monitor how values are changing.WVS fieldwork is conducted in waves every five years. Great Britain has participated in two waves, conducting interviews in 1998 and 2005. Since then, the nation has experienced profound change, from the effects of the financial crisis through to the political volatility following the vote to leave the EU. Understanding whether underlying values within Britain, and between Britain and other nations, have grown apart or come together matters. We are told that the population is split along a variety of fault lines, be it by how we voted in the EU referendum, where we live, our age or our level of education. Whether these differences are real or imagined, fixed or shifting, is of immense consequence. Participating in Wave 7 of WVS offers a timely opportunity to explore where coherent or fractured identities have formed, how deeply and whether these trends are distinctive to other countries.Conducting fieldwork in May 2020, this grant will not only generate a high-quality data resource at a decisive point in the nation's history, soon after the UK intends to leave the EU; the project will conduct new analyses that test whether values, attitudes and beliefs in Britain and elsewhere are polarising, to help shape policy decisions and nuance public discussion about division in Britain against a global context.The project's objectives have four core applications and benefits:1. Thousands of researchers use WVS data as a basis for their work, along with governments, journalists, international agencies and others. Our primary objective is to ensure that fieldwork for Great Britain is conducted in 2020 to generate a high-quality data resource that can be accessed and reused, without restriction, by users around the world.2. Research into division in Britain's values, attitudes and beliefs has largely been issue specific or focused on identities formed around Brexit. The broad subject and country coverage of WVS presents the opportunity to apply a cross-disciplinary, globally-comparative lens to the topic of polarisation, furthering understanding of how individually divisive issues intersect, inform identity and become mutually reinforcing.3. Grouping populations by their values or morals can reveal a fuller spectrum between the attention-grabbing extremities of political identity. We will explore a range of segmentations that provide alternative models for groupings in the British population based on morals or values, moving beyond divisive models such as Leave/Remain, Somewhere/Anywhere, Open/Closed. To support this aim, we will add a set of questions on Moral Foundations Theory.4. There is clear concern within UK government about growing division in society; yet understanding of where the most urgent issues lie is poorly evidenced and rarely considered against the global context. Our fourth objective, to build consensus around where diverging values have implications for UK policy, will deliver a clear benefit to policymakers. Drawing on input from subject and policy experts, we will collaboratively develop recommendations to help improve outcomes around the most divisive or unifying policy areas.

价值观是我们判断生活中什么是重要的基本原则。它们反映在我们的态度、判断、行为标准中，并决定我们关心什么。自1981年以来，世界价值观调查一直在跟踪价值观、态度、信仰和行为的演变，涉及的主题从文化认同、移徙、人际信任、同理心和人类容忍到媒体的使用、政治利益以及对科学、技术和环境保护的看法。今天，WVS是世界上最大和最常用的社会调查之一。它的全球覆盖范围涵盖了110多个国家近40万人的意见，使人们能够研究不同国情下不同价值观之间的相互作用，并监测价值观的变化情况。英国参加了两次浪潮，在1998年和2005年进行了采访。从那时起，这个国家经历了深刻的变化，从金融危机的影响到投票离开欧盟后的政治动荡。了解英国内部以及英国与其他国家之间的潜在价值观是分裂还是融合很重要。我们被告知，人口是沿着沿着各种断层线分裂的，无论是我们在欧盟公投中如何投票，我们住在哪里，我们的年龄还是我们的教育水平。无论这些差异是真实的还是想象的，是固定的还是变化的，都有着巨大的影响。参与WVS的第七波提供了一个及时的机会，以探索在哪里形成了连贯或断裂的身份，这些趋势有多深，以及这些趋势是否与其他国家不同。在2020年5月进行实地调查，这笔赠款不仅将在英国打算离开欧盟后不久，在国家历史上的决定性时刻产生高质量的数据资源;该项目将进行新的分析，测试英国和其他地方的价值观、态度和信仰是否两极分化，以帮助制定政策决定，并在全球背景下对英国的分裂进行细微的公众讨论。数以千计的研究人员使用WVS数据作为他们工作的基础，沿着的还有政府、记者、国际机构和其他人。我们的主要目标是确保在2020年进行英国的实地工作，以生成高质量的数据资源，供世界各地的用户不受限制地访问和重用。对英国价值观、态度和信仰分歧的研究主要是针对具体问题或集中在英国退欧前后形成的身份认同上。世界价值观的广泛主题和国家覆盖面提供了一个机会，应用跨学科，全球比较透镜的两极分化的主题，进一步了解如何个别分裂的问题交叉，告知身份，并成为相互依存。通过价值观或道德观来衡量人口，可以揭示出政治身份中引人注目的极端之间更全面的光谱。我们将探索一系列细分，为基于道德或价值观的英国人口分组提供替代模型，超越分裂模型，如离开/留下，某处/任何地方，开放/关闭。为了支持这一目标，我们将增加一组关于道德基础理论的问题。英国政府内部对社会日益分化的担忧明显;但对最紧迫问题所在的理解证据不足，很少考虑全球背景。我们的第四个目标是围绕不同的价值观对英国政策的影响达成共识，这将为政策制定者带来明显的好处。根据主题和政策专家的意见，我们将合作制定建议，以帮助改善最具分歧或统一性的政策领域的成果。
