Our hallmarks: a rigorous approach to methodological quality, complete transparency as to our methods, and a commitment to exploring and evaluating ongoing developments in data collection. All data that we publish is accompanied by a detailed methods report such as the one <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2024\/07\/2024-NPORS-Methodology-Statement.pdf\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2024\/06\/PS_2024.6.27_energy_TOPLINE.pdf\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-american-trends-panel\">The American Trends Panel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignright is-style-callout is-style-300-wide has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#f7f7f1\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/pewresearch.org\/polling-email-course\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PM_21.09.22_pollingMiniCourse_featured.png?w=640\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-401096\" style=\"width:200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"try-our-email-course-on-polling\">Try our email course on polling<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to know more about polling? Take your knowledge to the next level with a short mini-course from Pew Research Center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the 1980s until relatively recently, most national polling organizations conducted surveys by telephone, relying on live interviewers to call randomly selected Americans across the country. Then came the internet. While it took survey researchers some time to adapt to the idea of online surveys, a quick look at the public polls on an issue like presidential approval reveals a landscape now dominated by online polls rather than phone polls.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most of our U.S. surveys are conducted on the<a> <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/the-american-trends-panel\/\">American Trends Panel<\/a> (ATP), Pew Research Center\u2019s national survey panel of about 10,000 randomly selected U.S. adults. ATP participants are recruited offline using random sampling from the U.S. Postal Service\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/about.usps.com\/postal-bulletin\/2001\/html\/pb22057\/a-d.html\">residential address file<\/a>, and respondents are reimbursed for their time. Most panelists complete the surveys online using smartphones, tablets or desktop devices. Non-internet and internet-averse panelists are called by an interviewer to complete surveys on the phone. <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2021\/09\/07\/how-do-people-in-the-u-s-take-pew-research-center-surveys-anyway\/\">Learn more<\/a>\u00a0about how people in the U.S. take Pew Research Center surveys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignright is-style-callout is-style-300-wide has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#f7f7f1\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-310-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2017\/05\/12\/methods-101-video-random-sampling\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Methods101-Thumbnail-FINAL-640x320-2-8.jpg?w=310\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-372296\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"methods-101\">Methods 101<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our video series helps explain the fundamental concepts of survey research including <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2017\/05\/12\/methods-101-video-random-sampling\/\">random sampling<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2018\/03\/21\/methods-101-video-question-wording\/\">question wording<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2019\/02\/07\/methods-101-mode-effects\/\">mode effects<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2018\/08\/06\/video-explainer-what-are-nonprobability-surveys\/\">non probability surveys<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/methods\/2019\/07\/16\/video-how-is-polling-done-around-the-world\/\">how polling is done around. the world.<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Center also conducts custom surveys of special populations (e.g., <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2017\/07\/26\/findings-from-pew-research-centers-2017-survey-of-us-muslims\/\">Muslim Americans<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2021\/05\/11\/jewish-americans-in-2020\/\">Jewish Americans<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/social-trends\/2021\/03\/25\/the-growing-diversity-of-black-america\/\">Black Americans<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2020\/02\/11\/path-to-legal-status-for-the-unauthorized-is-top-immigration-policy-goal-for-hispanics-in-u-s\/\">Hispanic Americans<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/internet\/2018\/05\/31\/teens-social-media-technology-2018\/\">teenagers<\/a>) that are not readily studied using national, general population sampling.
