Abstract
A 1949 Denver community survey on civic problems and voting habits had two hidden primary purposes: to measure the truthfulness of respondents' answers to questions of fact, and to ascertain the differences in results on a wide range of questions obtained by interviewers of known characteristics. The present article, the second in a series, examines the results of the survey in terms of the latter of these two purposes.Keywords
