1 Survey Details

The 2022 Verasight National AAPOR Omnibus Survey was conducted by Verasight May 28 - June 1, 2022. All questions were contributed by attendees of the 2022 Conference of the American Association for Public Opinion Research. The sample size is 1,163 respondents. 180 respondents from the sample were recruited via targeted online advertisements. The remaining 983 respondents were recruited from an existing Verasight panel, composed of individuals recruited via both address-based probability sampling and online advertisements.

The data are weighted to match the Current Population Survey on age, race/ethnicity, sex, income, education, region, and metropolitan status, as well as to population benchmarks of partisanship and 2020 presidential vote. The margin of error, which incorporates the design effect due to weighting, is +/- 3%.

To ensure data quality, the Verasight data team implemented a number of quality assurance procedures. This process included screening out responses corresponding to foreign IP addresses, potential duplicate respondents, potential non-human responses, and respondents failing attention and straight-lining checks.
