| Description |
The Los Angeles County Social Survey (LACSS) continues the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area Studies (LAMAS) and the Southern California Social Surveys (SCSS). A set of core questions focuses on attitudes and views of living in Los Angeles, neighborhoods, public services, and political views. The sample of respondents is a random digit dial sample of all telephone households in Los Angeles County and contains over samples of African American, and Asian American households. The N of respondents in the 1992 survey is as follows: White n=625; African American n=483; Latino n=477; Asian American n=284. Main topics in 1992 include ethnic relations, social dominance, social distance, immigration, affirmative action, and employment. Respondents were randomly selected to answer a series of questions from one of three ballots concerning immigration and affirmative action; social distance questions varied depending on the respondent's ethnicity. Interviewing used a computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) system. The questionnaire was deployed in English or Spanish depending on language spoken by respondent.
