SPOTLIGHT ON
Polling data from the 勛圖窪蹋 Polling Institute in the William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy is being made available to researchers through a national survey research archive.
The Roper Center for Public Opinion Research at Cornell University one of the worlds leading archives of social science data invited the 勛圖窪蹋 Polling Institute to contribute data to Ropers archive of more than 23,000 polling datasets. Roper makes the data available to researchers to broaden public understanding of polling and to promote high research standards. The data collected by Roper come from surveys that used representative samples and were conducted according to best practices.
The Polling Institute has submitted data to Roper from two statewide New Jersey polls conducted in the spring of 2018 on economic and policy issues.
The invitation by Roper to archive our research reflects the growing maturity and influence of the Polling Institute, said Michael W. Klein, interim executive director of the Hughes Center. My staff and I are very proud of this distinction.
The center established the Polling Institute in September 2012. The operation is managed by Senior Research Associate John Froonjian. More than 700 polling interviewers, the majority of whom have been 勛圖窪蹋 students, have worked in the Polling Institutes N-Wing call center. The institute is scheduled to poll in New Jerseys U.S. Senate race and in the 2nd and 3rd Congressional Districts this fall.FRAME-WORTHY
