Morris, Director Rolfe D. Peterson, Associate Director/Methodologist Sean Fedorko, Project Manager Table of Contents About MCAP………………..……….……………………………………………2 Methodology………………………………………………………………………3 Key Findings...…………………………… ……………………………………...6 Frequency Report………………………………………………………………..12 1 | P a g e Mercyhurst Center for Applied Politics The Mercyhurst Center for Applied Politics (MCAP) began operations in July 2010. Inspired by the mission of Mercyhurst College and guided by the college’s core values, the center promotes reasoned discourse about problems facing communities, states and nations. It accomplishes this objective by providing elected officials, government agencies, news organizations, and nonprofits with accurate and unbiased assessments of public opinion; and offering a nonpartisan forum for public debates and roundtable discussions that address pressing public problems. The centerpiece of MCAP is the state of the art computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) facility. The facility, which is located in the Hammermill Library, is comprised of sixteen interviewer stations and staffed by well-trained research associates. The specialized computer software used to conduct telephone interviews generates random telephone numbers in a predefined geographic area, or dials from a list, and allows research associates to accurately complete even the most complex interviews. The center also has the ability to design and administer online surveys. This method of interviewing is ideal for organizations that have relatively up-to-date email addresses for their members. The software used by MCAP allows a researcher to administer a survey - whether short and simple or long and complex – to an unlimited number of email addresses.
