For options in 3, there is some overlap with what some other large and established surveys cover—you may for example be interested to look up the General Social Survey (GSS), which has been going for decades and covers a range of social issues like trust in the medical establishment, trust in ‘science’, general social trust, alongside all sorts of other things—you can try searching for variables here: https://​​gssdataexplorer.norc.org/​​variables/​​vfilter
This is amazing! I never knew how much I want to know about changes in people’s attitudes over time 😊
Some questions that interest me here, changes in time of the following [written with haste]
moral attitudes (utilitarianism vs deontology, welfare vs preferential, human vs animal, maximizing vs satisficing, …)
Particular moral values like nationalism, globalism, pacifism, consumerism, pursuit of happiness, importance of freedom, justice, equality, …
Trust in institutions (government, academia, types of media, large tech companies, other countries [China, Russia])
attitude about the future (extinction? AI? pandemics? war? settling other star systems? utopia? digital life?)
attitude toward philanthropy, EA, other social movements, particular and nonparticular billionaires
Great ideas.
