NB: 1. The N for each correlation ranged from 9210 to 9630 in the Eurobarometer survey and from 28107
to 29870 in the ISSP survey.

2. All the correlations in the two tables are statistically significant at an 0.01 level.

3. ISSP data: we added the separate question on traditions (see note 3) to the other seven items on national
identity.
