The America's Barometer (or Latin American Public Opinion Project)

The America's Barometer (or Latin American Public Opinion Project)

PERLA questions are included in the 2010 LAPOP (Latin Amer­i­can Pub­lic Opin­ion Project) eth­nic­ity mod­ule of the Americas’ Barom­e­ter. The LAPOP mod­ule is used in a large set of Latin-American coun­tries but it con­tains a smaller num­ber of PERLA sur­vey items than the in-depth PERLA surveys.

There are three ways to access the LAPOP data through their website:

1. Run analysis from their website. The analysis can be simple (percents) or complex (logit, OLS, with scales, etc.)
2. Any Latin American can get the data for his or her country for free
3. Institutions may subscribe to the datasets to download the data online via IP access.
