This paper presents brief information on the major ‘public’ surveys that have been carried out in New Zealand, especially over the last decade. Other information locates these within the overall framework of opinion and related research in New Zealand.
The listing in section 7 (of nearly 300 surveys) is in alphabetical order of author, then project and then date. Extending and checking the list is an ongoing task.
It is not easy to source surveys that have been carried out. This search began with Statisphere, where at least some government-sourced recent surveys are listed under each Department heading. After that, web searches (using ‘survey’ as the keyword: and related) were carried out on appropriate websites:
The list of findings has only minimal details about each survey:
This is based on a database in which a wider range of information is included, namely:
There are several particular features of surveys that may enhance their value, and wherever any of these is present, this is noted in the survey database:
Surveys are increasingly deployed as a standard tool of governance: researching the needs and views of potential state customers and then assessing the performance of ministries in meeting those needs (or at least in handling the interface). For the social sciences, surveys are also important in recording views and characteristics of people, which would be difficult to measure in any other way, together with the enhanced analytical capacities survey data allows.
There is some difficulty in defining a survey in relation to overlapping social research investigations and other types of study. (This is made even more problematic by the ambiguities of the term itself.) A social or public opinion survey is public, samples from a general population and includes non-administrative information (e.g. attitudes). It is easier to indicate what is not included: namely evaluation studies, qualitative studies, administrative data-collection, limited-purpose customer satisfaction surveys, single-purpose academic studies, etc. Examples of those that employ survey data have been ignored.
One indication of the extent of surveys can be seen in those used by local governments: in a Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) survey (2002/3) most of the councils indicated that random surveys were one of the ‘consultation techniques’ they used.
Web-surveys are entirely ignored, although some valid surveys are in fact accomplished through this format. As one indicator of the prevalence of web-survey formats, a State Services Commission (SSC) report (SSC, 2005: p11) notes that “agencies use the internet in a number of ways to enable public and business to provide feedback on government information, to participate and to be involved in government. The internet is used by 18 agencies (47%) for online surveys. Five agencies (13%) have established online discussion forums that are available to the public or businesses”.
Separate attention is paid to longitudinal and market research studies: see sections 2 and 3 below. Some surveys are carried out as part of a programme: other programmes are now being put in place to store surveys – information about some New Zealand survey research programmes is included in section 5. In addition, SPEaR has set up a ‘data saving and sharing committee’ that is expected to report (inter alia) on policy suggestions concerning survey data.
This listing is intended to form the foundation for several further studies and/or programmes of activity:
A bibliography of nearly 1000 ‘book’ items relating to NZ surveys, attitude studies, etc. sourced from The University of Auckland’s Voyager database is also available.
To provide a basis for comparison with Australian surveys held in the Australian Social Science Data Archive (ASSDA), this archive’s holdings have been analysed in section 6.
Some market research firms list some of their studies (especially those of political or social interest) or make findings available. In particular some are commissioned by the media to carry out surveys and some have their own programmes of research. Other firms can be found via the Market Research Society website.

Note: Although this archive is no longer active, the studies listed provide an indication of earlier surveys that still exist in electronic form.
The Programme of Official Social Statistics (POSS) is a 10 year programme to develop a coordinated set of official social statistics across government. It is the result of extensive consultation and discussion with government agencies and other interested individuals and organisations over the last three years to identify gaps and deficiencies in existing data.
The POSS is made up of a suite of social surveys to be developed and managed, not all by Statistics New Zealand. Examples of proposed new surveys include a housing survey and a family survey. The POSS also encompasses more effective use of administrative data for statistical purposes and aims to improve analysis and dissemination of data. An advisory group has been established to advise Statistics New Zealand on the development of new surveys and databases that will contribute to the POSS. The group is made up of representatives from key government agencies.
A coordinated whole-of-government programme of official social statistics will provide a robust foundation for planning and investment decisions, and associated research and evaluation activity. The first new survey in the programme is the GSS which aims to provide information on selected aspects of social wellbeing.
Statistics New Zealand is developing an information plan for each outcome domain. These plans will provide a tool for Statistics New Zealand to establish a shared understanding of priorities and agreement between key users and data custodians on what is required to address statistical needs into the future.
List of proposed and existing surveys in the Programme of Official Social Statistics:
The Top Down Review of the Official Statistics System recommended that the Official Statistics Research and Data Archive Centre (OSRDAC) be established to provide:
The data archive holds important unit record datasets from across the official statistics system and makes suitably confidentialised versions of these data sets available to researchers via Statistics New Zealand’s microdata access services.
All versions of each data set, along with their associated metadata and documentation are carefully managed to ensure long-term use.
Data archive contents
International Visitor Arrivals
The International Visitor Arrivals Survey (IVA) collects data on international visitor numbers, source country, demographics, purpose of visit and port of entry.
International Visitor Survey
The International Visitor Survey (IVS) collects data on international visitor behaviour, expenditure and travel patterns.
Commercial Accommodation Monitor
The Commercial Accommodation Monitor (CAM) collects data on the demand for and supply of commercial accommodation, and numbers employed in accommodation establishments.
Domestic Travel Survey

The New Zealand Health Monitor (NZHM) is an integrated programme of population health surveys and record linkage studies managed by Public Health Intelligence (PHI). The NZHM is a key element in the governmental cross-sector programme of Official Social Statistics, and operates under strict ethical standards.
NZHM surveys collect health information that cannot be collected during the process of health care. This includes information on the health status of New Zealanders, risk and protective factors associated with health, access to and the use of health services (especially primary health care services), and inequalities in health between population groups (for example, by age, sex, ethnicity and socio-economic position).
| NZHM survey | Topic/data areas | Frame (target population) | Sample | Mode | Frequency |
| New Zealand Health Survey | Chronic diseases, biological and behavioural risk factors, reported health status, health service utilisation, sociodemographics. | All New Zealanders | Approximately 12000 adults and approximately 5000 children | Face to face, computer-assisted (CAPI) questionnaire plus anthropometric measurements in respondent’s home. | Every three years (next 2006/07) |

| New Zealand Oral Health Survey | Oral health status, oral health beliefs, attitudes, knowledge and practices | All New Zealanders | Approximately 6000 to 8000 | Face-to-face CAPI questionnaire and examination in respondent’s home. | In planning for 2007/08 to be repeated every 10 years |
| New Zealand Tobacco Use Survey | Tobacco use and the psychosocial correlates of smoking behaviours. Prevalence and consumption data available from the NZ Health Survey in third year. | New Zealand adults (15–64 years) | Approximately 4000 to 6000 | Face-to-face CAPI questionnaire in respondent’s home. | Two out of every three years (2005, 2006, 2008, 2009 etc) |
| New Zealand Alcohol and Drug Use Survey | Alcohol and illicit drug use, and the behaviours associated with alcohol and drug use. | New Zealand adults (16–64 years) | Approximately 6000 to 8000 | To be decided | Every two years (next 2007) |
| New Zealand Sexual Health Survey | Health-related risk and protective behaviours associated with sexual health. | New Zealand adults (16–64 years) |
In order to provide some comparative perspective on the sort of data which might be available in NZ were more serious searching to be activated, the ASSDA catalogue was downloaded and multiple data sets removed. This reduced the number from 2000 data sets to just over 1000 surveys. When series (e.g. waves of longitudinal studies or series of polls) are identified, the number of surveys stored falls to some 600–700.
