Supplementary notes
Original question:
Do you consider yourself Taiwanese, Chinese or both?
Survey was conducted among:
50 percent of random-digit-dial probability sample of landline households and 50 percent mobile phone numbers. Landline samples are stratified by region. Individuals within landline households are selected using the Rizzo method. Interviews in the mobile sample are conducted with the person who answered the phone, if age 18 or older. For both landline and mobile samples, up to seven phone calls are made to complete the interview with the selected respondent.
Values may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding.
