Social Capital Community Survey:
Methodology and Documentation
(January 5, 2009)
This document describes the research methods and procedures applied in the
year 2006 Social Capital Community Survey, a research study undertaken by
the Saguaro Seminar at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard
University. It includes a description of the participating community’s
samples, the survey development process, sampling procedures, data
collection procedures, the composite indices formed as measures of social
capital and other constructed variables, weighting, statistical confidence
intervals, and response rates.
1.
Background and Objectives of the Research
Social capital is the societal analogue of physical or economic capital -- the
value inherent in friendship networks and other associations which
individuals and groups can draw upon to achieve private or collective
objectives. In recent years, the concept has received increasing attention as
accumulating evidence demonstrates the independent relationship between
social capital and a wide range of desirable outcomes: economic success,
improved school performance, decreased crime, higher levels of voting, and
better health. Within communities, recent research supports the belief that
social capital fosters norms of social trust and reciprocity, facilitating
communal goals. The concept’s theoretical richness and practical significance
is becoming increasingly well-documented.1
We conducted the Social Capital Benchmark Survey in 2000, nationally as
well as in 41 U.S. communities, to measure various manifestations of social
capital as well as its suspected correlates. The 2000 SCCBS (1) provided a
rich database for analysis by interested researchers who wish to better
understand social capital and (2) provided a tool for communities and
organizations to use in program development and evaluation, in part, by
enabling relative assessment to other communities and the nation.2 The
2000 SCCBS, and subsequent follow-up and panel surveys conducted after
Sept. 11, 2001 have been invaluable in convincing the government to begin
measuring social capital in government surveys. This measurement has
begun with measurement of volunteering, voting, attendance at public

The national survey was funded jointly by a grant from the Ford Foundation; the
community surveys, by 34 local community foundations. Technical support,
management, and some initial data analysis was provided by staff at the Saguaro
Seminar, John F. Kennedy School of Government – Harvard University.

meetings and work on community projects, which will be asked in the
November supplement to the Current Population Survey.3
We have returned to the field with this 2006 Social Capital Community
Survey (SCCS) to assess change nation-wide and in the participating
communities in dimensions of social capital.4

The 2006 SCCS generally was a follow-up survey in communities that participated
in 2000, with the exception of the Duluth, Arkansas, and Kansas samples.
Wave 2 ran from April to August, 2006 and covered the following 8
communities: Kansas (samples in Kansas City, Junction City, Wichita, Garden
City, Abilene, KS; rural sample; and urban sample in cities other than the
above); New Hampshire (statewide with oversample in Cheshire county and
I-93 corridor); Sarasota County, FL; and national sample.

In total, some 12,100 respondents were interviewed across both waves.

Kansas samples using the MSA variable.]
TNS Intersearch, an international survey firm, was commissioned to conduct
the interviewing, prepare the data for analysis, and provide a “banner report”
(detailed cross-tabulations). Interviews averaged 32 minutes in length.
Local Sample Design
Each sponsoring organization decided what specific area(s) were to be
surveyed, how many interviews to conduct, and if specific areas or ethnic
groups were to be over-sampled. In most cases, the survey area was one
county or a cluster of contiguous counties; some of the community samples
are municipalities and others are entire states. Most of the community
surveys used proportionate sampling, that is, no over- or under-sampling of
sub-areas or population groups. Most of the samples range in size from 400
– 800 interviews. (A complete list of communities surveyed along with each
survey’s sponsor, sample size and geographic definition are shown in Table 1
below.)
National Survey
The national sample (N = 2,741) was conducted randomly across the
Continental U.S.

the phone exchange mapping, some of the interviews may have fallen
outside the desired geographic areas.

Survey Instrument
Development Process
The 2006 SCCS Survey built heavily on the 2000 SCCBS Survey which was
developed by the Saguaro Seminar in conjunction with the Scientific Advisory
Committee that they formed.5
5
The Scientific Advisory Group in 2000 was comprised of the following people to advise about
the best questions to ask and make sure the survey would be an effective way to measure
Questionnaire construction in 2000 followed an exhaustive process beginning
with a listing of relevant content areas for the survey. Using this list, a
thorough search was made to identify potential questions from previous
surveys which would be suitable for use. Pertinent questions were borrowed
from other surveys, whenever possible, to facilitate comparisons. For the
2006 SCCS, we removed questions that were less predictive of important
outcome variables in 2000, and added in more questions to test the
intersection between diversity, social capital, and equality.
The 2006 questionnaire developed for CATI programming underwent
numerous redrafts, additional pretesting (beyond the extensive 2000
pretesting), and was revised several times before receiving final approval. It
was then translated into Spanish, reviewed and revised, and then ultimately
fielded.
Versioning
Because of budget limitations and the desire to avoid an extremely lengthy
interview to preserve response quality, several sections/questions were
administered to randomly selected portions of the sample. Typically such
questions in surveys are designed in “split ballots” (where some respondents
get questions A, B, and C; and other respondents get equally long questions
D, E, and F). The disadvantage is that if one wants to understand how
people who answered A interacted with the answers they gave to D for
example, you can’t do this, because no respondents get questions across
these ballots.
Thus for the 2006 SCCS survey, we did the relatively innovative practice of
randomizing by question rather than ballot (paired groups of questions).
This way, one has data on the relationship between any two questions in the
survey.
In addition, there was a series of about 10 questions, questions 39A-H that
were administered only in Baton Rouge, Houston, Arkansas and in some
cases in the national sample to gauge how the influx of Katrina refugees
affected social patterns and attitudes.

Sampling
RDD Sample Source and Sampling of Households
The GenesysTM system, a widely-recognized random-digit-dial survey
telephone number generator, was used to produce the starting sample
telephone numbers. Genesys is a list-assisted sampling procedure which
generates numbers from all working residential hundred-banks (area code +
exchange + digits 7 and 8; example: 215 654-78XX) of possible telephone
numbers corresponding to the targeted geographic area – the boundaries of
the community’s geography, as specified by the sponsor. A hundred-bank is
determined to be “working residential” if it contained at least one two
directory-listed residential phone numbers.
As in all RDD telephone surveys, prefixes (area code + exchange
combinations, sometimes called 10,000-banks) were selected which
correspond to the area being surveyed. The degree of correspondence is not
perfect and depends, among other factors, on the size of the geographic unit
being surveyed: the larger the area, the more likely that a phone number
from a given prefix will fall within the indicated borders. Correspondence is
very high with state lines, fairly high with large county boundaries, less so
with smaller counties, and so forth. The same size – degree of fit
relationship applies among municipalities. Irregularly shaped borders can
also complicate (lessen) the tightness of the correspondence.
Most sponsors were willing to accept some degree of slippage between
sample phone exchanges and desired geography – and tolerate an expected
small percentage of their final sample falling outside the geographic definition
of their community – rather than implement more expensive respondent
screening.
Disproportionate Stratification in Some Community Surveys
Except in Rochester, New Hampshire and Kansas, where there was oversampling, proportionate random sampling was used to select households
from the relevant communities. [The Rochester oversample oversampled in
exchanges that had a disproportionate share of blacks and Hispanics to
increase the number of respondents in those categories. The NH sample
included, as was the case in the 2000 SCCBS survey, an oversample of 200
respondents in Cheshire County and an oversample of 200 respondents in
the I-93 Corridor..]
Selection of Respondents
The “last-birthday” method of respondent selection was used to randomly
select one adult in contacted households:
So that all types of people are represented in our survey, may I
please speak to the person 18 years or older living in your
household who last had a birthday?
Substitution of alternate respondents was not permitted: If the designated
respondent was unwilling or unavailable to be interviewed throughout the full
complement of contact attempts, that phone number was assigned the
appropriate non-response code.
5.
Interviewing Procedures
Interviewers, Training, and Supervision
TNS Intersearch selected experienced interviewers to conduct the telephone
survey interviews. Interviewers worked from centralized telephone
interviewing facilities under continuous supervision of senior staff. The
survey’s large scale required use of multiple interviewing centers. All of the
interviewing in Spanish was conducted by bilingual interviewers from one
facility in California. A small number of interviews in Cantonese were
conducted in the San Francisco survey by experienced survey interviewers
fluent in Cantonese and English.
Interviewers were thoroughly briefed on the specifics of the survey before
beginning, using a customized Interviewer Guide prepared for this survey.
Refresher briefings were administered periodically, especially on techniques
of obtaining respondent cooperation. Interviews in progress were also
intermittently monitored for quality control. Interviewers not performing up
to standard were retrained and, if necessary, replaced.
Contact Regimen
To minimize the number of non-contacts, at least 11 attempts were made
(initial dialing plus 10 call-backs) before sampled telephone numbers were
replaced. In many cases – particularly when re-contact appointments were
made and eventual contact seemed likely – there were more than 11 dialings
to sampled numbers, and in some cases as high as 30. Successive contact
attempts were scheduled at different times of the day and week, and the full
complement typically spanned a period of at least one month, often longer,
to maximize the chance of eventual contact.
To minimize the number of refusals and increase participation, skilled
“refusal conversion” interviewers attempted to re-contact those initially
opting out of the survey (or hanging up abruptly) and persuade the
designated respondent in the household to agree to be interviewed. Such
efforts did not include “hard refusals” – where the person answering was
decidedly adamant about not participating, or was angry or abusive to the
interviewer.
6.
Constructed Social Capital Indices and Related Variables
As noted: many of the indices that we computed in 2000 can not directly be
constructed in 2006 because some of the constituent items were not asked.
For more on the 2000 indices that we constructed see our 2000
documentation on the Roper site at:
http://webapps.ropercenter.uconn.edu/CFIDE/roper/collectioninterest/webro
ot/registration.cfm?subject=SCC
7.
Other Constructed Variables in Data Files
Apart from the social capital indices (and related variables) described in the
previous section, several other variables which do not appear on the
questionnaire were computed or appended and included in the data files:
METSTAT – A “metropolitan status” code provided for each sample telephone
number, measuring location of place of residence relative to MSA center
city or if not part of an MSA: center city of MSA, same county as MSA
center city but not center city, other county of MSA, in MSA with no
center city, and non-MSA.
ETHNIC4 – A recoding of race and Hispanic ethnicity into four primary
racial/ethnic categories: non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, Hispanic,
and Asian.
AGE – A recoding of year of birth into age.
WEIGHT –weight for each sample.
FWEIGHT – Downweights oversampled areas to produce community weights.
RESPID – Respondent’s unique identification number.
CALLD – Date of interview.
SAMP – Code representing the community interviewed or the sample.
CENSDIV – Code representing one of nine U.S. Census divisions.
CALL – Number of contact attempts required to complete interview.
LANGASK – Language of interview (English or Spanish).
Frequency of Civic/Social Activities Which Combine Follow-Up Probe
PARADE2 – Q56A: CPARADE and PARADE.
ARTIST2 – Q56B: CARTIST and ARTIST.
CARDS2 – Q56C: CCARDS and CARDS.
FAMVIS2 – Q56D: CFAMVISI and FAMVISIT.
CLUBS2 – Q56E: CCLUBMET and CLUBMEET.
FRNDHOM2 – Q56F: CFRDVIST and FRDVISIT.
FRNDRAC2 – Q56G: CFRDRAC and FRDRAC.
JOBSOC2 – Q56H: CJOBSOC and JOBSOC.
FRNDHNG2 – Q56I: CFRDHANG and FRDHANG.
TEAMSPT2 – Q56J: CSOCSPRT and SOCSPORT.
WWWCHAT2 – Q56K: CWWWCHAT and WWWCHAT.
PUBMEET2 – Q56L: CPUBMEET and PUBMEET.
NEIHOME2 – Q56M: CNEIHOME and NEIHOME
HMEXNEI2 – Q56N: CHMEXNEI and HOMEXNEI
VOLTIME2 – Q58: CVOLTIME and VOLTIMES.
Interviewers asked how often the respondent engaged in each activity
(Q56A-N, 58) in two different ways. First: How many times in the past 12
months have you [participated in activity X]? Those who could not, or did
not, answer the initial, open-ended question were asked a follow-up, probe
specifying frequencies to try to make it easier for the respondent to provide
an answer: Would you say you never did this, did it once, a few times, about
once a month on average, twice a month, about once a week on average, or
more often that that? For each item, the variable name for the initial
question (“How many times have you…”) begins with a “C” (e.g., CPARADE),
the variable name for the probe is similar but omits the “C” (e.g., PARADE),
and the variable which combines the two distributions (those answering the
initial question and those answering the probe) ends with a “2” (e.g.,
PARADE2). Users will most commonly want to use the combined variables in
their analysis.
[Note: for the combined variables in this series (of the form PARADE2, ARTIST2, etc.) answers
of "53" to the actual numerical estimate (e.g., CPARADE) and answers of 9 ("more than every
week") to the range-prompted questions (e.g., PARADE) were coded as 60 times per year.]
8.
Weighting the Data
The data weighting involved three steps: (1) calculation of an initial weight,
(2) calculation of the balancing weight, and (3) multiplying these two weights
to produce the final weight (FWEIGHT).
Initial Weight
The initial weight takes account of (a) the number of adults in the household
and (b) the number of telephone lines in the household through which
someone could be contacted. Calculation of the initial weight is
straightforward:
Initial weight = number of household adults / number of phone lines
Example: If there were 3 adults and 2 phone numbers, the initial weight
would be 1.5. (The number of adults entered into the formula was capped at
3 to avoid excessive variance. The number of phones was capped at 2.)
For those samples with geographic disproportionality -- where specifications
called for different proportions of interviews with residents in different parts
of the sample area relative to population size -- a further adjustment was
made to the initial weight. For example, if residents in the center city made
up 25% of the population of the county of which it is a part, but had 50% of
the interviews, then each center city respondent’s initial weight would be
halved and each non center city respondent’s weight would be increased by
50% (.75/.50 = 1.5).6
Balancing Weight
The purpose of the balancing weight is to reproduce the population
distributions in the sample on four demographic characteristics: gender, age,
education, and race/ethnicity. The best available population estimates were
used as the target proportions for calculating the balancing weights – either
U.S. Census (CPS) figures (in a minority of samples) or MSG estimates, from
Marketing Systems Group, which provided the GenesysTM RDD sample.
Weighting calculations are based on the marginal frequency distributions of
the four balancing weight variables. For community samples, univariate
distributions (“marginals”) for each of the four demographics (gender, age,
education, and race) were used. These were entered into a program which
uses an iterative process to estimate cell weights – a procedure known as
“marginal weighting” or “raking.” The algorithm attempts to reproduce the
marginal distributions as closely as possible while minimizing variation across
the cell weights.
For the balancing weight variables, the categories used in most of the
samples were: gender: male, female; age: 18-34, 35-44, 45-64, 65+;
education: college graduate, not college graduate; and race/ethnicity:
Hispanic, non-Hispanic black, all others. When available, additional
categories were sometimes used for education and race/ethnicity to afford
greater precision. Additional categories were employed in the weighting only
when they constituted at least 5% of the respective survey’s estimated
population and the sample cell was non-empty. (Appendix C shows the
population estimates used to calculate the balancing weights, by community,
and their source.)

6
Polarity
This applies in Rochester (oversampled area: 10.5% of sample, rest of city:
89.5%), New Hampshire (Cheshire Co.: 22.3% of sample; I-93 corridor 22.2% of
sample, rest of state: 55.5%), and in Kansas.
In the files that TNSI sent out, the variables and the indices had inconsistent
polarity: i.e., in some cases a higher score meant more of that variable and
in other cases it meant less of that variable. It is easier to work with data
variables that all have consistent polarity, so that, for example, when
variables X and Y have a negative correlation you know that more of X
corresponds with less of Y, and that it is not an artifact of one of these
variables having reversed coding. We recommend that variables be recoded
so they have consistent polarity. For an indication of how to do this, please
refer to the latest version of the 2000 Codebook for a list of how all the
variables and indices are coded. [Also, please note that in some cases a
variable with inconsistent polarity was recoded onto the same variable -- for
example, the quality of life variable (QOL) was recoded with the correct
polarity but still has the same name as it originally had. In other cases,
variables with reversed polarity were recoded into new variables; for
example, since a higher score on TRUST meant less trust, not more, a new
variable TRUST2 was created with the reoriented polarity. Any variable that
has been superceded by a new variable with a different name and reversed
polarity is so noted below each variable in the codebook.]
10.
Response Rates
Survey response rates are shown in Table 3. The first column (Response
Rate) displays the overall response rate, unadjusted for incidence of
eligibility:
RR = (I + P) / ((I + P + R + NC + O + e(UH)),
where:
I = the number of completed interviews
P = the number of partial interviews
R = the number of refusals and terminations
NC = the number of households where the designated
respondent was not reached (and there was no
explicit refusal)
O = other (health or language barriers)
UH = unknown eligibility / unknown if household – mostly
repeated busy signal or Caller ID block
The proportion of unknowns estimated to be eligible (e) was .2.7 In most
samples, there was no geographic or race/ethnicity screening, so all adults
qualified (incidence = 100%). For those samples, the Response Rate and
Adjusted Response Rate are the same.
In the community surveys where screening occurred (as in the national
survey), incidence was less than 100% -- requiring an adjustment to make

Detailed lists and counts of all the sample disposition sub-categories were provided
and sent to each of the sponsoring organizations.
the screened and unscreened sample response rates comparable. The
adjustment consisted of multiplying the sum of the non-response categories
in the denominator of the formula [R, NC, O, e(UH)] by the estimated
incidence8 and recalculating RR.
The incidence proportion was calculated as the sum of (the completed
interviews plus partial interviews9 plus terminates) divided by the sum of
(the completed interviews plus partial interviews plus terminates plus the
number of households screened and determined to be ineligible).
The Adjusted Cooperation Rate uses the same logic as the Adjusted
Response Rate – only it deletes the NC, O, and e(UH) terms from the
denominator. Essentially, it the number of eligible respondents reached who
chose to participate and completed an interview. The Cooperation Rate (or
Adjusted Cooperation Rate) is the inverse of the Refusal Rate: Coop Rate = 1
– Refusal Rate.
8
This adjustment assumes that the likelihood of contact and cooperation following
contact was the same among eligible and ineligible respondents. This assumption
may be less valid in some samples/locations than in others. To the extent it does
not apply, the estimated adjusted rate will be inaccurate.
9
In this survey, “partial interviews” are those which were begun but not completed
and there was no explicit refusal to continue. They are not included in the files.

As Table 3 shows, Adjusted Response Rates ranged from a low of 13.5%
(Sarasota) to a high of 25.4% (Lewiston, Auburn). The average adjusted
response rate across all respondents in the community samples was 19.3% - which compares with 16.7% in the National Sample.
Cooperation rates ranged from 14.5% (Houston) to 28.7% (Lewiston,
Auburn), and averaged 23.6% across all respondents in the community
samples. The National Sample cooperation rate was 21.3%
Response rates and cooperation rates are affected by judgments about
classifying various types of dispositions as well as the size of the e term.
These decisions were guided by an effort to be conservative but fair to the
construal of the rates as performance measures.
Notes to Users:
A) These 2006 social capital community survey data are being supplied on an
*as-is* basis (as supplied by the polling firm with only modest changes from
us to repolarize data or merge variables that need to be combined). You will
most likely need to do various massaging of these data before analysis.
Note: these data are NOT necessarily being supplied in a consistent form
with the 2000 Social Capital Community Benchmark Survey so please take
care in your analyses.
B) Some of these questions were only asked of respondents in Katrinaaffected parts of the country, like Arkansas, Baton Rouge or Houston, and
some questions were only asked of the national sample. [Most of these
questions are question 39A-H.] One question about trust in co-religionists
(7C) was asked only in Winston-Salem, Greensboro and of a random 33% of
national sample.
Some changes you may want to make to these files:
1) Create EDUC_ALL from EDUC and GED, and maybe create an intervalized
ED_YEARS variable and create educational dummies. Create RACE_ALL from
various racial responses.
2) Create work status dummies from LABOR and a ‘working’ dummy.
3) Create WORKTIME (counting nonworkers as 0).
4) Create dummies for marital status and create a LIVEPART variable (living
with partner) counting those who are currently married as 0.
5) Create immigrant status variables and immigrant generation variables.
6) Reorder POLKNOW into POLKNOW2 that corresponds to increasing political
knowledge.
7) Racial trust: create RACETRST, TRSTOWN, RTSTBLK, RTSTWHT,
RTSTASN, RTSTHIS variables of composite racial group trust (see 2000
SCCBS codebook to see how this was done).
8) Creating indices: (instructions on how we did these things in 2000 is in
our 2000 codebook, available from Roper), but in some cases we didn’t ask
all of the underlying questions so you will have to take great care in blindly
replicating any 2000 indices:
- CIVPART
- DIVRSITY
- GRPINVLV, GRPINVL2
- SOCTRUST
- FAITHBA2
- CHARITY
- PROTEST
- SCHMOOZ
- ORGINTER
- ELECPOL
- MACHER
9) Recode RELMEM into RELMEM2 counting those with no religion as not
church members.
10) Recode OFFICER & REFORM into 0 when respondent doesn't belong to
any organization.
11) Create a new RELPART variable that codes this as 0 when respondent is
not religious
13) Create new JOBSOC3 that counts non-workers as 0
14) Create new attitude variables towards inter-racial marriage that exclude
the same racial/ethnic group (e.g., recode MARASN into MAR2ASN, but just
for non-Asian respondents)
15) HISPNAT categories may not be consistent with 2000 SCCBS survey that
we conducted.
16) for KS, NH and Arkansas samples you can get a breakdown of where
those interviews were with MSA variable (for NH and Arkansas) or with MSA
and qcell (for Kansas).
C) These data are being provided as a public utility. If you use these data in
any publication, please properly attribute these data as “The 2006 Social
Capital Community Survey. Saguaro Seminar: Civic Engagement in America
project at Harvard’s Kennedy School, in conjunction with various community
foundations across the U.S.”
We would also like to know about any publications that come out of these
data.
D) Finally, if you spot errors in these data, can you let Roper know about this
(rcweb@ropercenter.uconn.edu) as well as Tom Sander at Harvard
(tom_sander@harvard.edu) so we can post a list of changes that need to be
made to these data.

Next, I’d like to know whether you have warm or cold feelings toward a number of well-known
groups. I’ll read out a group and ask you to rate it from zero(0) to one hundred (100). The highter
the number, the warmer or more favorable you feel toward it. If you have very warm or positive
feelings, you might give it 100. If you have very cold or negative feelings, give it a zero. If you feel
neither warm nor cold toward it, give it a 50. You can use all the numbers from zero to 100. The first
group is . . . .
