Survey

Background

The survey was carried out by the [http://portal.mytum.de/jungeakademie/index_html/document_view? TUM young academy], who planned to install a website to inform the public about genetic engineering. They made an online questionnaire and stood in Munich for one day, with a print out version. All in all 1183 people participated, 979 online and 204 at the street, thereof 597 were male and 570 female. The problem is that in this survey the age from 15-24 is with 70% drastically over represented, the reason could be that through the university project more students were reached.
This team allowed us to use their data for our project as well. As they had 33 questions we chose the ones directly relied to genetic engineering, the ones dealing with the webpage they wanted to create we left out.
