SURVEY DEVELOPMENT


CERG's surveys are designed to measure:

  • The extent to which California students are committed to future civic participation.
  • The kinds of civic and political activities students are currently involved in.
  • The capacities - including knowledge, skills, and feeling of efficacy - students have for active citizenship.
  • The opportunities that schools can provide to support future active citizenship.
  • Youth online activites in the public sphere.
  • New media opportunities for public participation.

The survey is formatted for web administration. Please contact the authors at civicsurvey@mills.edu to inquire further about scales and items.
