VAR CF0319 NUMBER OF DISLIKES - REPUBLICAN PARTY COLUMNS 249 - 249 NUMERIC MD EQ 9 Is there anything in particular that you don't like about the Republican party? What is that? Anything else [you don't like about the Republican Party]? SUMMARY: NUMBER OF DISLIKES -- REPUBLICAN PARTY ------------------------------------------------------------------- USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0009/VCF0009A/VCF0009B. Five possible mentions were coded in all original NES datasets. MD category 9 comprises cases of systematic question exclusion, i.e., when a question was not present within a form (1972,1990,1996) or within a wave (1952,1960), or if a question was omitted entirely that year (1954,1962,1966, 1970,1974). Rs who responded "no" to "Is there anything in particular that you dislike about the Republican party?" have been coded here as 0 mentions; Rs coded DK or NA in response to the same question have also been coded here as 0 mentions. In addition, Rs who responded "yes" to "Is there anything in particular that you dislike about the Republican party?" BUT who provided no mentions (DK or NA in first mention) have been coded 0 here. In 1996, the order in which the set of likes/dislikes questions was administered for the 2 major parties was randomized ('likes' always preceding dislikes). 0. Zero negative mentions (dislikes) 1. One negative mention (dislikes) 2. Two negative mentions (dislikes) 3. Three negative mentions (dislikes) 4. Four negative mentions (dislikes) 5. Five negative mentions (dislikes) 9.
