A sample of respondents from the 1982 ANES Pre-Post Study was selected (probability sample) for two waves of telephone interviews. Wave I (July 1 to July 25) encompassed 314 interviews, and Wave II (August 1 to August 22) obtained 274 reinterviews. Each wave used two questionnaires, Form A and Form B, administered to different half-samples.
