Sensitivity of Emotion-Tracking App Data vs. Phone Conversations

Advances in technology, including in artificial intelligence, enable certain smartphone apps to record users’ emotions and identify whether they are focused on work, relaxing, or scrolling social media. Some people think that such information is very sensitive, while others think it is not very sensitive. How sensitive do you find such information compared to the content of conversations you have on your phone?

Federal Government’s Effectiveness in Addressing Price Spikes

At various points in U.S. history, prices of common goods increased very quickly (in other words, prices “spiked”). When this type of spike occurs, members of the federal government— including the president and/or members of the U.S. Congress— often propose ways of addressing it. Which comes closest to your view about the federal government’s (meaning, the president and/or U.S. Congress) ability to address spikes in prices:

Support for Government Job Guarantee Program

Think about a potential government program that would guarantee a job to any American who wants one. This program would provide people with stable, family-sustaining work that addresses national or community needs while helping them build skills and gain experience for future employment. The program would be funded by a 5 percent income tax increase on those earning over $200,000 per year. Would you support or oppose creating a program like this?

Consumer Intentions Post-Regulation on Intoxicating Hemp-Derived THC Products

Congress has considered changes to federal hemp law that would restrict or eliminate certain intoxicating hemp-derived THC products starting in November 2026. Non-intoxicating hemp products like CBD will remain legal. These include products such as delta-8 THC, THCA flower, THC-infused gummies, vapes, and THC-9 beverages that are derived from hemp but can produce intoxicating effects similar to marijuana. These products are often found at gas stations, “cannabis” stores, liquor stores or smoke shops. When intoxicating hemp-derived THC products are no longer legally available outside of state-licensed marijuana dispensaries (which may not be available in your state) what will you most likely do?

Impact of Political Stances on Shopping Preferences

Recently, some small businesses have become more outspoken about political issues. For example, some local businesses now offer special deals and pledge to support federal law enforcement agents working in your community with each purchase. Would this make you more likely, less likely, or equally likely to shop at that business?

Preferred Policy for Voter Registration

Recently, some policymakers have proposed a federal law that would require U.S. citizens to provide documentary proof of citizenship— such as a U.S. passport or birth certificate— that matches their current legal name in order to register to vote. Other policymakers disagree. They argue that citizens should instead be required to attest (under penalty of law) that they are U.S. citizens during the voter registration process, without having to provide documentary proof of citizenship. Which policy do you prefer for voter registration?

Views on the Tone of Political Discourse

In politics today, we see a great deal of banter between politicians and others, with some of the language used being pretty tough and insulting. For instance, in response to a ruling against Trump’s tariffs, the president said: “The Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I’m ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country,” and that “Evil, American hating Forces are fighting us at the United States Supreme Court.” In response, one commentator referred to “Trump’s Stupid and Vile Attack on Supreme Court Justices.” Regarding this sort of talk, please check all of the following that you agree with.

Bystander Behavior in Helping Situations

Imagine you witness someone walk past a person who has dropped and scattered their belongings across a busy sidewalk without stopping to help. What would you think is most likely going on?

Survey Details

📋 5,000 (1,000 per module) US adults 📅 March 6 – March 16, 2026

Verasight collected data for this project from March 6 - March 16, 2026. The sample consists of 5,000 United States adults. All questions were submitted by Verasight clients. Respondents were randomly assigned to one of five modules (N = 1,000 per module), each containing an approximately equal subset of the survey questions.

The sampling criteria for this survey were:

US residents
Adults (age 18+)

The selection criteria for the final sample were:

Passed all data quality assurance checks, outlined below

The data in each module are weighted to match the January 2026 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, differs for each module and is shown below:

Module 1: Technology, Finance, & Media +/- 3.4%
Module 2: Economics, Work, & Policy +/- 3.5%
Module 3: Elections, Civic Life, & the Environment +/- 3.5%
Module 4: Identity, Politics, & Social Trust +/- 3.6%
Module 5: Health, Community, & Personal Values +/- 3.5%

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. 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.
