Full version of 2007 CASS Internet Survey Report is now available online. This is the fourth survey on Internet use and its impact in China, conducted by Professor Guo Liang at the Center for Social Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). The previous surveys were conducted in 2001, 2003 and 2005. As such, the current findings allow for longitudinal analysis covering urban areas in China.

    The survey is part of the World Internet Project (WIP), founded and organized by Professor Jeff Cole, at the University of South California (USC) Center for the Digital Future, comprising more than 25 countries or regions.

    A weighted sample of 2001 urban residents between the ages of 15 and 59 years were included in the telephone survey, comprising 1,315 Internet users and 686 non-users.
