Universe	Persons aged 16 and over from the 124 Federal Electorates excluding the Northern Territory
Time Method	One-time cross-sectional study - partial replication (Omnibus survey conducted 11 times annually)
Sampling Procedure	Multi-stage cluster sample with age and sex quota The survey is conducted on the first two weekends of the month. Each weekend, a multi-stage probability sample is used with a total of 150 small clusters of households throughout the six states and the ACT. The sampling areas are widely spread and thoroughly representative of both urban and rural areas throughout Australia. The total sample requirement of clusters is distributed to 124 Federal Electorates with probabilities of selection proportionate to latest enrolment figures. The selection is systematic from a geographical listing of Electorates. At the next stage of the design, within each Electorate, a number of Electoral Sub-Divisions is chosen for the sample with probabilities of selection proportional to latest electoral enrolments. The selection is systematic from a geographical listing of Electoral Sub-Divisions. Within each selected Electoral Sub-Division, a Census collector's district is chosen for the sample with a probability of selection proportional to size. The selection is systematic from a geographical listing of districts. At the final stage, within each selected collector's district, a small cluster of consecutive households is called upon beginning with those households where nobody was at home during the two most recent previous Monitors in the same area, and then consecutive households. The cluster size is ten effective interviews in metropolitan areas, and five effective interviews in non-metropolitan areas. Equal numbers of effective interviews with males and females aged 16 and over based on an age quota are obtained in each sample locality. One person only is interviewed in each household. All types of dwellings are called on and listed, with the exception of places such as vacant dwellings, boarding houses, hotels, hospitals, religious institutions, military establishments, schools, etc. In each of these cases, the dwelling is ignored and the next household is called on in its place.
Collection Mode	Face-to-face interview
Actions to Minimize Losses	Almost all calls are purposely made on weekends or evenings, so as to ensure the greatest chance of household members of all ages being at home in the households called upon. Up to two call-backs are made on those households where there is no-one at home. This is an important feature of the design and execution of the study, ensuring that a due proportion of people who are frequently not at home are included in the sample.
Weighting	Weighting criteria With the foregoing method of selection of individuals for the sample, the composition of the sample by age, sex and localities is always closely in line, but never exactly in line, with the distribution of the population by age, sex and localities. Therefore separate weighting factors are applied to each age/sex group in each metropolitan Statistical Division and in each "rest of State" area in all results shown in the Gallup Poll Newspaper Releases and Computer Sheets. Whilst the survey is conducted only in private dwellings, it is assumed that people living in non-private dwellings such as boarding houses, hospitals, hotels and motels have similar characteristics to those living in private dwellings. weighting procedures The weighting factors that are used in order to bring the sample exactly into line with the population are calculated by dividing the total population in each age/sex/locality cell by the sample size in that cell. The total population counts are given in the Gallup Poll Computer Sheets.
