A Study of Voting Behavior and Political Democratization in Taiwan: the 1992 Election for the Members of Legislative Yaun (Pre Election 1st Telephone Interview)

Thus, this election marked the first complete election of the Legislative Yuan and also the first time that the membership of the legislature completely reflected current popular opinion in over forty years. We carried out two surveys, one before the election and one after it.

The surveys were of a panel design, so that we could observe the changes in attitudes among individual voters. The frame adopted for this survey was the telephone listings for the Taiwan Area. First, we determined the number of respondents to be sampled from each area in accordance with that area\'s proportion of households.
