Adapted white, coloured and Indian co-workers' panels of the Opinion Survey Centre of the HSRC were used for the survey. The samples were drawn country-wide but did not include non-urban areas (farms and smallholdings). A procedure of cluster sampling in randomly selected statistical regions, magisterial districts and enumerator subdistricts was used.
A structured questionnaire was used to collect data, and was comprised of: Section A: “Biographical data” on the respondent's sex, age, home language, education level, occupation, marital status, and income); Section B: Data on the image of the Human Sciences Research Council; Section C: “General” questions on attitudes to South Africa's political situation, and the respondent's attitudes to other race groups.
