We provide here the Polish version of the questionnaire on the basic questions covered in all four national surveys. The Czech and Hungarian versions differ in slight nuances on the core questions and have additional questions listed below. The Bulgarian questionnaire does not have questions 6 and 8, but substitutes questions on the use of Turkish language in Bulgarian school instruction, the defense of the Orthodox Church against proselytizing religions, and foreign relations with Turkey.

The format of the questions and the response options given to the interviewees is identical in all four surveys.
