Compliance with Ethical Standards
:
: The survey on which this article is mostly based was subject to the normal ethical procedures for public attitude surveys: oral informed consent was obtained, confidentiality was promised, participants were free to withdraw (and to withdraw their data) at any time, and material was stored in such a way as to prevent ‘linkage’ and the identification of participants by outside parties. The project obtained ethics approval from the Research Ethics Committee of the University of Aberdeen, the lead partner, and country partners obtained the permission of government or other agencies in their country where this was required.
