Description This study was designed to obtain a profile of women who are active in a movement generating social change through advocating political equality. The sample consists of participants at the first state convention of the Iowa Women's Political Caucus held in September, 1973. At the caucus, a two-page questionnaire was handed out to 598 attendees when they entered the room. By the end of the two-day caucus, 405 had been returned, almost all from women.



The questionnaire included precoded items on political activity, background, age, income, and occupation. In addition, there were open-ended questions on goals, women as political participants, and scales of importance of policy issues and agreement with policy positions.
