Gen2 Survey, March 2023

Description

The survey explores the identity of second-generation immigrants in Finland, their voting intentions in the 2023 parliamentary elections, and their general views on politics and society. The data was collected as part of the Gen2 survey panel, which is part of The Finnish Research Infrastructure for Public Opinion (FIRIPO). First, respondents were asked about their interest in politics and their trust in various entities, such as the government and the media. The survey then explored respondents' experiences of Finnishness and their ethnic identity. Respondents were asked whether they consider themselves part of an ethnic minority in Finland and to what extent they identify with different groups. They were also asked about the factors they consider important to their identity. In addition, the survey addressed respondents' views on political participation and the role of ethnic minorities in politics. Next, respondents were asked about their voting intentions in the 2023 parliamentary elections. They were also asked to what extent various factors and characteristics influence their choice of party and candidate or their decision not to vote. Respondents also indicated which parties they believe are best positioned to promote the interests of ethnic minority groups in Finland. Following this, respondents were asked to evaluate various options regarding the future direction of Finland. Following this, they evaluated different future policy directions for Finland, including issues such as promoting equality, increasing immigration, taxation policy, the size of the public sector, and combating climate change. Finally, respondents were asked whether they had experienced discrimination in the past five years. Background variables included the respondent's age, gender, region of residence, electoral district, statistical grouping of municipalities, level of education, occupational group, party affiliation, and the continent of birth of their parents.
