The primary goal of the National Politics Study (NPS) was to gather comparative data about individuals' political attitudes, beliefs, aspirations, and behaviors at the beginning of the 21st century. Exploring the nature of political involvement and participation among individuals from different racial and ethnic groups, the survey included questions about voting preferences, party affiliation, organizational membership, immigration, racial consciousness, acculturation, and views of government policies.

This study was designed to provide information on attitudes and opinions regarding a number of issues of importance to Black Americans. Topics included the performance of President Bill Clinton, the economic condition of Black Americans, and what respondents thought ought to be done to improve the condition of Black people. Questions regarding Black women and their role in the Black community were also asked. In addition, the role and extent of religion in Black politics was investigated. Respondents also provided information about their political self-identification and their community and political involvement, as well as their feelings toward various political leaders, political groups, and national policies. Demographic information on respondents includes sex, age, education, marital status, income, and occupation and industry.

Researchers are tracking how people across the world are responding to the coronavirus pandemic. The global survey, launched in partnership with YouGov the first week of April, is collecting fortnightly data from 29 countries to explore the public’s attitudes and health behaviours as the situation evolves. This survey is monitoring how compliant individuals are with COVID-19 safety measures, such as self-isolation and avoiding unnecessary travel. It also looks into a range of other relevant behaviours and measures, from hygiene to quality of life.
