Post-2022 Election survey

After the 2022 U.S. elections, researchers at the SurveyLab designed a follow-up survey that again focused on Americans’ views on the state of democracy, policy positions, racial attitudes, and media consumption habits. It also included questions on the midterm elections and student-created questions related to topics such as foreign policy and the perceived ideological lean of social media platforms. YouGov conducted another series of online interviews from November 18th through 29th, 2022. The survey interviewed 1,750 U.S. national respondents, who were then matched to a sample of 1,461. These were combined with 539 Black respondents to produce the final dataset of 2,000. The process to produce the final dataset was the following. The respondents were matched to a sampling frame – based on gender, age, race, and education – that was constructed by either a stratified sampling from the full 2019 American Community Survey (ACS) 1-year sample or a black subset of this survey. The matched cases were weighted to the sampling frame using propensity scores. The matched cases and the frame were combined, and a logistic regression was estimated for inclusion in the frame. To do that, the propensity score function employed age, gender, race/ethnicity (national only), years of education, and the region as covariates. The weights were then post-stratified based on relevant variables (2016 and 2020 Presidential election vote choice, gender, age, education, and race) to produce the final combined weight. The questionnaire included questions on political behavior, policy preferences, attitudes, media, and social media consumption, demographic questions, and survey experiments.
