Nature
of the Sample: 938 U.S. Residents
This survey of 938 United States residents was
conducted on August 3rd through August 6th, 2009.
Residents 18 years of age and older were interviewed by telephone. Telephone
numbers were selected based upon a list of telephone exchanges from throughout
the nation. The exchanges were selected to ensure that each region was
represented in proportion to its population. To increase coverage, this
land-line sample was supplemented by respondents reached through random dialing
of cell phone numbers. The two
samples were then combined. Results are
statistically significant at ±3.2%. The error margin increases for
cross-tabulations.
