Construction of the large scale repeated cross sectional data set for family studies in Japan

本研究的目的是规划继1999年(NFRJ98)和2003年(NFRJ03)之后的系列社会调查研究--日本第三次国民家庭调查(NFRJ08)的研究设计，并进行这项调查。我们最终计划将这一数据集作为研究人员的公共用途。我们采用分层两阶段随机抽样的方法，于2008年11月至12月期间，从日本28岁至72岁的男性和女性中抽取了9400个样本。于2009年1-2月采用自填式问卷调查法进行调查。我们从他们那里获得了5203名受访者(回复率为55.4%)。

The aim of this research project is to plan the research design of the 3^<rd> National Family Research of Japan (NFRJ08), which is the serial social survey research after those conducted in 1999 (NFRJ98) and 2003 (NFRJ03), and to do this survey. We finally plan to make up this data set as a public use one for researchers. We selected 9,400 samples by stratified two stage random sampling method among people aged 28 to 72, men and women living in Japan, between November and December in 2008. We did survey by self-administered questionnaire method between January and February in 2009. We got 5,203 respondents from them (response rate was 55.4 percent).
