The National Survey of Disaster Experiences and Preparedness (NSDEP), 2007-2008 examined public preparedness, mitigation, avoidance actions, intended actions and perceptions of major hazards with an emphasis on the hazards created by terrorism. Telephone interviews were conducted with 3300 United States residents between April 13, 2007 and February 13, 2008. Information was collected on topics such as terrorism, the government, knowledge about terrorism, and disaster/emergency planning and preparedness. Demographic and background variables included marital status, household composition, age, gender, education, country of birth, ethnicity, employment status, and income.

The goal of this study was to provide a comprehensive picture of how children experience the news: where they get news, how the news makes them feel, and how they perceive the news. This data is from a large-scale, nationally representative, probability-based cross-sectional online survey taken by participants ages 10-18 in 2016. Demographic data include age, gender, and race/ethnicity.
