The Syracuse University-Ipsos American Identity poll measures U.S. attitudes toward democracy, news and information and civic engagement. This national survey is conducted by Ipsos for Syracuse University’s Institute for Democracy, Journalism & Citizenship (IDJC). Each wave of the survey includes interviews with roughly 1,000 U.S. adults using KnowledgePanel®
The findings are available to the public and news organizations. A detailed methodology is included at the end of each topline report. This project helps IDJC researchers expand our understanding of the relationships between media consumption and polarization in a fragmented and rapidly changing news climate. Each set of questions and findings provides an avenue to teach our students around survey research and demographic trends in society.
