The results to the specific queries reveal the following:

1. In responding to the question of the definition of money; almost three quarters (73%) of the respondents picked the most widely used definition in economics and Islamic economics textbooks and/or books, while the remaining chose the definition that confines money to nowadays paper money issued by governments.
2. In answering the question whether all money in circulation in modern economies are issued and/or created by governments; majority (58%) said ‘no’, 33% choose ‘yes’, while only 9% said they ‘don’t know’.
3. If entities other than the government are involved in money ‘issuance’ and/or creation’ who are they? About half (49%) of the respondents said that the entire banking industry (i.e. all diverse types; commercial, investment …etc.) are the ones, 27% stated that they ‘don’t know’, 18% pointed out to commercial banks, while 6% claim that specialized banks are behind the activity of money ‘issuance/creation’ in the economy besides the government.
4. And for the question concerning the proportion of ‘official money’ (i.e. fiat money) to the size of the money supply in the economy respondents’ answers have been as follows: majority (42%) stated that this type of money constitutes more than 50% of the money in circulation, 23% stated that this portion ranges between 20 - 30%, 15% choose the 10-20% range, another 15% choose the range of 30-40 %, while only 5% said that the official money accounts for less than 5% of the money supply.

What are the implications of these results? How can they be interpreted and/or interlinked to the statement of Galbraith and the like of other economists? These and other related questions will be investigated thoroughly in this research.
