With funding from the National Science
Foundation, Professors Ron Rapoport and Walt Stone have carried out surveys
with Democratic and Republican party activists since 1980. In addition,
since 1992 they have surveyed supporters of Ross Perot and the Reform Party.
This site is designed to provide scholars
and others who are interested in the Presidential Selection Study with
publicly available data and codebooks, as well as summaries of findings
contained in reports that have been sent to respondents participating in
the survey.
