Abstract
This survey was conducted in 6 Asian countries, including Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, thailand, Taiwan, and Australia, in 2009 by using a standard questionnaire for social quality, developed by ISDPR, Seoul National University.
The aim of survey was to measure the level of social quality and to compare and discover various aspects of social quality across countries. Since social quality is considered to be conditioned by 4 factors (socioeconomic security, social cohesion, social inclusion, and social empowerment). the standard questionnaire was designed to measure each conditional factors separately. The main questions are as follows.
1) socioeconomic security: financial situation, socioeconomic risk experiences, housing condition, redisential condition, burden of educational expenses, main income sources, etc.
2) social cohesion: personal trust, institutional trust, participation in associations, personal contact, qroup conflict, etc.
3) social inclusion: discrimination experiences, attitudes towards immigrants, gender role, excluded experience in life, etc.
4) social empowerment: status mobility, freedom of communication, attitudes to civil organizations and labor unions, political and economic efficacy, civic participation, etc.
Social network and additional trust questions were included in some of countries as well.
Survey population was adults who reside in each country. Since the definition of adults differ across countries, the age at which suffrage is given to in each country is regarded as the standard of adults, which is over 19 years old in Korea, over 20 years old in Japan and Taiwan, and over 18 years in the remaining countries.
