Special Eurobarometer 137: Europeans and the EC logo

This opinion poll, managed and organised by the Directorate-General for Education and Culture, «Centre pour le citoyen» («Analysis of public opinion» Unit), was conducted at the request of the European Commission's Directorate-General for Health and Consumer Protection. It was carried out in all the Member States of the European Union, between 1 November and 15 December 1999, under the general coordination of INRA (EUROPE) - European Coordination Office, situated in Brussels.
This report deals with people's knowledge and experience of a number of symbols, including the EC logo. It is divided into two chapters covering:
- Knowledge of the symbol, the products on which Europeans have seen it, its presumed meanings, the checks to which products carrying this symbol have been subject, the bodies responsible for putting the logo on products and its influence on the decision to buy.
- Knowledge of other logos and their influence on the decision to buy.
This survey is based entirely on new questions.

The results by volumes are distributed as follows:

• Volume A: Countries
• Volume AA: Groups of countries
• Volume A' (AP): Trends
• Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries
• Volume B: EU/socio-demographics
• Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics
• Volume C: Country/socio-demographics
