PEW RESEARCH CENTER FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE PRESS SEPTEMBER 1998 POLITICAL POLL

The "https://www.pewresearch.org/american-trends-panel-datasets/" Target="_blank">American Trends Panel (ATP), created by "https://www.pewresearch.org/our-methods/u-s-surveys/the-american-trends-panel/" Target="_blank">Pew Research Center, is a nationally representative panel of randomly selected U.S. adults. Panelists participate via self-administered web surveys. Panelists who do not have internet access at home are provided with a tablet and wireless internet connection. Interviews are conducted in both English and Spanish. The panel is being managed by "https://www.ipsos.com/en" Target="_blank">Ipsos.

Data in this report are drawn from the panel wave conducted March 1 to March 7, 2021. A total of 12,055 panelists responded out of 13,545 who were sampled, for a response rate of 89 percent. The cumulative response rate accounting for nonresponse to the recruitment surveys and attrition is four percent. The break-off rate among panelists who logged on to the survey and completed at least one item is one percent. The margin of sampling error for the full sample of 12,055 respondents is plus or minus one-and-a-half percentage points.

The ATP Wave 84 asked questions about religion in politics and tolerance.

The "https://www.pewresearch.org/" Target="_blank">Pew Research Center is a non-partisan organization dedicated to advancing social science research. They research a wide variety of topics through intensive opinion polling and demographic research. In 2014, they conducted a nationally representative telephone survey in the United States called the Religious Landscape Survey. This survey was conducted from June 4 to Sept. 30 in 2014 and featured a sample size of 35,071 U.S. adults. In a continuation of the survey, 5,000 of the respondents from the original poll were contacted again between March 17 and May 6 of 2015 for additional questions.

The survey was conducted on a large scale to develop a more precise understanding of the American religious landscape. The survey was conducted in both Spanish and English with a minimum of 300 interviews per state. The wide net, bilingual nature, and usage of telephones as the main form of communique, allows researchers to estimate that the survey covers 97 percent of non-institutionalized Americans. Though roughly three percent of Americans are not reachable by telephone or do not feature the necessary linguistic skills to participate in the survey, no additional measures were taken to account for this small percentage of the population not represented in the sample.

The large sample size of the research pool allows researchers to take a deeper look into religious groups previously under-studied in smaller surveys. The "https://www.thearda.com/data-archive?fid=RELLAND14" Target="_blank">2014 Religious Landscape study features hundreds of interviews with members of religious groups that make up less than one percent of the American religious sphere. The nature of this survey allows for a nuanced study of religious groups, and their individuals, across the whole of the country.

This survey focuses on news coverage. Issues addressed include approval of the president and congressional leaders, the Monica Lewinsky scandal, the United Auto workers strike against General Motors, cloning, the upcoming election, George W. Bush as a presidential candidate, World Cup soccer, news reporting, budget issues, national standards to protect patient's rights, managed care, and China. Demographic variables include use of computer and Internet, sex, age, education, race, marital stat us, religion, income, and party affiliation.

PEW RESEARCH CENTER FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE PRESS/INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE/COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS BUSH INTERNATIONAL POLL

A poll conducted on August 7-10, 1997 sponsored by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. Adults from across the United States were asked their opinions regarding Bill Clinton's tenure as President.

Please Note: This dataset is part of the historical CISER Data Archive Collection and is also available at the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research at https://doi.org/10.25940/ROPER-31095679. We highly recommend using the Roper Center version as they may make this dataset available in multiple data formats in the future.

The Lowy Institute Poll reports the results of the Institute's annual nationally representative telephone opinion survey, conducted in 2015 by market research company I-view, with supplementary polling commissioned by the Lowy Institute and conducted by Newspoll. Supplementary Newspoll collections are not provided in the dataset. For the annual survey, I-view surveyed 1200 Australian adults between 20 February and 8 March 2015. Four supplementary polls were conducted by Newspoll on 13-15 February (1211 adults), 10-12 April (1215 adults), 1-3 May (1213 adults) and 22-24 May (1210 adults), the findings from these are in the reports but not in the data. A number of the questions in the Poll were first asked in previous Lowy Institute Polls, or have been adapted from questions asked in those years. Repeating questions in successive years allows the comparison of public opinion on a single issue over time, building trend data on important international policy issues. Some of the questions this year are identical to questions asked previously by other survey organisations, which allows for the comparison of public opinion internationally. Several of the questions in this year’s Poll were modeled on those asked by other polling organisations, including the Council on Foreign Relations, Transatlantic Trends and Pew Research Center. Other questions this year drew from work of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, and polling on energy sources by Bisconti Research for the Nuclear Energy Institute.The order of questions in the questionnaires was different from the order presented in the report supplied in documentation.

Over the years, numerous polls have gauged public attitudes toward Mormons, who make up about two percent of all U.S. adults. But what do Mormons themselves think about their place in American life? With the rising prominence of members of the LDS Church in politics, popular culture and the media, do Mormons feel more secure and accepted in American society? What do they think of other religions? What do they believe, how do they practice their faith and what do they see as essential to being a good Mormon and to leading a good life?

To answer such questions, the Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion & Public Life conducted the 2011 National Survey of Mormons. A report detailing the survey's findings, "Mormons in America," was released in January, 2012 and is available on the Forum's website "http://www.pewforum.org/2012/01/12/mormons-in-america-executive-summary/" Target="_blank">here.

The study had two main goals. First, it sought to learn about Mormons' perceptions of American society and of their own place within it at a time when Mormons and Mormonism are receiving increased attention in the news media and popular culture. Second, it sought to assess the degree to which Mormons resemble or are distinctive from the broader public in their social and political attitudes and in their religious beliefs and practices. As such, the survey included a mix of new questions specific to Mormons and Mormonism and "trend" questions that have previously been asked of the general population in Pew Research Center surveys. The development of the survey questionnaire was informed by the advice and feedback received from a panel of advisers with expertise in the study of the U.S. Mormon population.

According to a survey carried out in 2020 by the Pew Research Centre in India, 75 percent of college-educated respondents felt that when there were fewer jobs, men should have the priority in being employed. Among the lesser educated respondents, 80 percent felt that men should have priority over women when fewer jobs were available in the market.

In December 2006, Environics Research conducted a major national survey of Muslims and multiculturalism in Canada, as part of its ongoing syndicated FOCUS CANADA research program. The research consisted of two national telephone public opinion surveys: - National survey with a representative sample of 2,045 Canadians (18 years plus) - National survey with a representative sample of 500 Muslims living in Canada The focus of this research is on the presence and experience of Muslims in this country, and draws direct comparisons with similar research conducted in 13 other countries by the Pew Research Center (many of the same research questions were used to provide for direct country-to-country comparisons). The Pew research included Muslim over-samples in Great Britain, France, Germany and Spain. Some of the topics covered in this research: General Public: - General attitudes about immigration in Canada - Personal contact with different ethnic groups (including Muslims) - Perceived discrimination against ethnic groups - General attitudes towards Muslims - Concerns about Muslims and terrorism - Islamic identity and extremism among Muslims - Integration of Muslims and other ethnic minorities into Canadian society - Canadian foreign policy and the mission in Afghanistan Muslims - Experience of being Muslim in Canada - Concern about the future of Muslims in Canada - Self identification within the Muslim community - The role and rights of women in ethnic communities - Islamic identity and extremism among Muslims - Integration of Muslims and other ethnic minorities into Canadian society - Canadian foreign policy and the mission in Afghanistan Please note, the cases in this dataset are comprised only of Muslim respondents. Data from the other component of this survey - the survey of the general population - may be found in the dataset titled "EFC064."

Please report any data errors or problems to user support, and we will work with you to resolve any data-related issues. The American National Election Study (ANES): 2016 Pilot Study sought to test new instrumentation under consideration for potential inclusion in the ANES 2016 Time Series Study, as well as future ANES studies. Much of the content is based on proposals from the ANES user community submitted through the Online Commons page, found on the ANES home page. The survey included questions about preferences in the presidential primary, stereotyping, the economy, discrimination, race and racial consciousness, police use of force, and numerous policy issues, such as immigration law, health insurance, and federal spending. It was conducted on the Internet using the YouGov panel, an international market research firm that administers polls that collect information about politics, public affairs, products, brands, as well as other topics of general interest. The purpose of this study was to test questions for inclusion on the ANES 2016 Time Series, as well as other future ANES studies. Respondents were selected from the YouGov panel survey administered on the Internet. Response to these surveys are on a volunteer basis. The data are not weighted. This collection contains two weight variables, WEIGHT and WEIGHT_SPSS. The variable WEIGHT is the weight for analysis that is intended to generalize to the population. The variable WEIGHT_SPSS is the weight recommended to be used by SPSS users not using the Complex Samples procedures and will account for the smaller effective sample size. For more information on weights, please see the ANES 2016 Pilot Study Codebook and User Guide found within the zip package, as well as visit the ANES Data Center Web site. United States citizens age 18 or older. Smallest Geographic Unit: state The study was conducted on the Internet using the YouGov panel. The YouGov panel consists of a large and diverse set of over a million respondents who have volunteered to complete surveys online and who regularly receive invitations to do so. They receive points usually worth about 21 to 50 cents for each survey they complete. The points are redeemable for various gift cards, a YouGov t-shirt, or UNICEF a donation. A respondent has to complete about 40 surveys to be eligible for any reward. Respondents were selected from the YouGov panel by sample matching. Matching is intended to make the individuals who complete the survey represent the population on the variables used for matching. Respondents were matched to United States citizens in the 2010 American Community Survey (ACS) sample by gender, age, race, and education, and to the November 2010 Current Population Survey (CPS) for voter registration and turnout status, and to the 2007 Pew Religious Life Survey on interest in politics and party identification. 1,200 individuals from the YouGov panel were selected for the ANES Pilot Study to match the target population defined by the ACS, CPS, and Pew surveys. After data collection the sample was weighted by YouGov using propensity scores using a logistic regression with age, gender, race/ethnicity, years of education, region, and party identification included in the model.
