Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the utility of Facet Analysis developed by Louis Guttman and his group by using the examples of the AsiaBarometer1 survey. The AsiaBarometer is a large scale multi-national questionnaire survey conducted at regular intervals (every year from 2003) within the Asia region, and focuses primarily on the everyday lives of ordinary people. It also asks questions about social values and norms, and political attitudes and behaviors.
