All surveys were conducted over the phone with adults in Canada, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Surveys were conducted face-to-face in Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ghana, Hungary, India, Israel, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tunisia and Turkey. In Australia, we used a mixed-mode probability-based online panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the United States, we surveyed 3,600 adults from April 1 to April 7, 2024. Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of the Center\u2019s American Trends Panel (ATP), an online survey panel that is recruited through national, random sampling of residential addresses. This way nearly all U.S. adults have a chance of selection. The survey is weighted to be representative of the U.S. adult population by gender, race, ethnicity, partisan affiliation, education and other categories.

We asked about political ideology using several slightly different scales and categorized people as being on the ideological left, center or right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In most countries, we asked people to place themselves on a scale ranging from \u201cExtreme left\u201d to \u201cExtreme right.\u201d The question was asked this way in Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Turkey and the United Kingdom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Australia, the scale ranged from \u201cLeft\u201d to \u201cRight.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand, ideology was measured on a scale from \u201cExtremely progressive\u201d to \u201cExtremely conservative.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the U.S., ideology is defined as conservative (right), moderate (center) and liberal (left).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ideology was not asked about in Ghana, India, Kenya, Malaysia, Sri Lanka or Tunisia.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prior to 2024, combined totals were based on rounded topline figures.
