        like you to tell me how much you agree or disagree with each          
        statement. (RESPONDENT BOOKLET SHOWN TO R)                            
                                                                              
        1984,1986,1990,1996:  I am going to read several statements.  After   
        each one, I would like you to tell me whether you agree strongly,     
        agree somewhat, neither agree nor disagree, disagree somewhat, or     
        disagree strongly. (RESPONDENT BOOKLET SHOWN TO R)

        In 1988, the placement of this variable within Post question order    
        varied according to questionnaire 'Form' (see VCF0012).               
                                                                              
        The order in which VCF9013-9018 questions appeared in the original    
        studies varied from year to year.  In addition, in 1988 the order of  
        egalitar-ianism items was scrambled among form B respondents (see     
        VCF0012).  In 1984, the egalitarianism series was administered with a 
        break mid-sequence.
