Description
Summary:This article presents preliminary results of a survey of public opinions and attitudes implemented in July 2011 in two Chilean cities. The aim of the research is to provide an initial understanding of the core values and perceptions that a representative sample of the Chilean public may hold about Antarctica. The survey was administered as a telephone survey with 600 residents in Santiago (n=300) and Punta Arenas (n=300) through a two‐staged random sample with random selection of homes with landlines, and selection of respondents over 18 years old, according to age, gender and socio‐economic level quotas. The cities were chosen because of their importance: Santiago as the largest city and national capital and Punta Arenas as the regional capital and Chile’s Antarctic gateway city.
