METHODOLOGY
This 28-country Global Advisor survey was conducted between October
22nd 2021 - November 5th 2021 via the Ipsos Online Panel system among
19,021 adults aged 18-74 in Canada, Israel, Malaysia, South Africa, Turkey
and the United States, and 16-74 in all 21 other countries.
The “Global Country Average” reflects the average result for all the
countries where the survey was conducted. It has not been adjusted to the
population size of each country and is not intended to suggest a total result.
The samples in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru,
Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and Turkey are more urban, more
educated, and/or more affluent than the general population. The
survey results for these markets should be viewed as reflecting the
views of the more “connected” segment of these populations.
Weighting has been employed to balance demographics and ensure
that the sample’s composition reflects that of the adult population
according to the most recent census data.
The sample consists of approximately 1000+ individuals in each of
Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy,
Israel, Japan, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the US, and approximately 500+
individuals in each of Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Hungary, India, Malaysia,
the Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South
Korea, and Turkey.
The precision of Ipsos online polls are calculated using a credibility
interval with a poll of 1,000 accurate to +/- 3.5 percentage points and
of 500 accurate to +/- 5.0 percentage points. For more information on
the Ipsos use of credibility intervals, please visit the Ipsos website.
The samples in Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany,
Great Britain, Hungary, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Poland, South Korea,
Spain, Sweden, and the US can be taken as representative of these
countries’ general adult population under the age of 75.
Where results do not sum to 100 or the ‘difference’ appears to be +/-1
more/less than the actual, this may be due to rounding, multiple
responses, or the exclusion of don't knows or not stated responses
The publication of these findings abides by local rules and regulations.
