Survey Details
Verasight collected data for this survey from December 22, 2025 -
January 05, 2026. The sample consists of 2,000 United States adults.
Respondents were randomly assigned to one of two modules (N = 1,000 per
module), each containing an approximately equal subset of the survey
questions. Furthermore, all 2,000 respondents received the module
containing pop culture questions.
The sampling criteria for this survey were:
US resident
Adult (age 18+)
The selection criteria for the final sample were:
Passed all data quality assurance checks, outlined below
The data are weighted to match the September 2025 Current Population
Survey on age, race/ethnicity, sex, income, education, region, and
metropolitan status, as well as to a running three-year average of
partisanship distributions from the Pew Research Center NPORS
benchmarking surveys and population benchmarks of 2024 vote. The margin
of sampling error, which accounts for the design effect and is
calculated using the classical random sampling formula, is +/- 3.1% for
the Politics and Economy module, and +/- 3.1% for the Artificial
Intelligence module. The margin of sampling error for the Pop Culture
module, which all respondents saw, is +/- 2.2%.
All respondents were recruited from the Verasight Community, which is
composed of individuals recruited via random address-based sampling,
random person-to-person text messaging, and dynamic online targeting.
All Verasight community members are verified via multi-step
authentication, including providing an SMS response from a mobile phone
registered with a major U.S. carrier (e.g., no VOIP or internet phones)
as well as within-survey technology, including verifying the absence of
non-human responses with technologies such as Google reCAPTCHA v3.
Those who exhibit low-quality response behaviors over time, such as
straight-lining or speeding, are also removed and prohibited from
further participation in the community. Verasight Community members
receive points for taking surveys that can be redeemed for Venmo or
PayPal payments, gift cards, or charitable donations. Respondents are
never routed from one survey to another and receive compensation for
every invited survey, so there is never an incentive to respond
strategically to survey qualification screener questions.
To further ensure data quality, the Verasight data team implements a
number of post-data collection quality assurance procedures, including
confirming that all responses correspond with U.S. IP addresses,
confirming no duplicate respondents, verifying the absence of non-human
responses, and removing any respondents who failed in-survey attention,
speeding, and/or straight-lining checks. The Verasight data team also
reviewed open-ended items to ensure no responses contained nonsensical,
inappropriate, or non-sequitur text. Respondents who completed the
survey in less than 30% of the median completion time were also
removed.
Unmeasured error in this or any other survey may exist. Verasight is
a member of the American Association for Public Opinion Research Transparency
Initiative.
