Supplementary notes

The original question was phrased by the source as follows: "Normalt foregår lovgivningen i EU, men Frankrig har gjort stoffet Bisphenol A, som mistænkes for at være hormonforstyrrende, ulovlig i alle materialer, der er i kontakt med fødevarer (f.eks. mademballager, drikkedunke og lignende). I Danmark er Bisphenol A forbudt i produkter til børn under tre år. Hvilket af disse tre udsagn er du mest enig i?"

The source does not specify the number of respondents.
