Appendix A. Frequency Tables for ITC China Four Page Summary

This document presents tables of data which correspond to the ITC China Four Page Summary. All tables are listed in chronological order of the
original document, and present weighted point estimates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

“Valid responses” refer to all responses included in the calculation of statistics reported in the China Four Page Summary, where point estimates
excluded item-specific non-responses; the only exceptions to this rule were for income, knowledge-based questions (where “Don’t know” is
considered a valid response), or where otherwise explicitly indicated. “All responses” includes all participants, whether the response was a valid
response, a non-response (such as “Refused” or “Don’t know”), or whether a response was missing altogether.
