Public Opinion Survey of Residents of Ukraine: Four Municipalities
May 26–June 30, 2018 Methodology
• The survey was conducted by Rating Group Ukraine on behalf of the International Republican Institute’s Center for Insights in Survey Research. • The survey was conducted in the cities of Kherson, Rivne, Severodonetsk and Slovyansk through face-to-face interviews at respondents’ homes between the following dates: • Kherson: May 26–June 17 • Rivne: May 26–June 15 • Severodonetsk: May 26–June 20 • Slovyansk: May 26–June 18 • The sample consisted of 1,200 residents of each municipality aged 18 and older and eligible to vote. It is representative of the general population by gender and age. The distribution of population by region of the city is based on statistical data from the Central Election Commission from the 2014 parliamentary elections, which divided the city into electoral districts. The distribution of population by gender and age is based on data from the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine from January 1, 2017. • A multi-stage probability sampling method was used with the random route and next birthday methods for respondent selection. • The margin of error does not exceed 2.8 percent. • The response rates for each municipality are as follows: • Kherson: 70.3 percent • Rivne: 70.8 percent • Severodonetsk: 66.7 percent • Slovyansk: 60.8 percent • Charts and graphs may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding. • The survey was financed by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). • For purposes of comparison, where applicable, the slides also contain data from IRI's national survey of Ukraine, conducted during the same fieldwork period. This data was publicly released by IRI on August 20, 2018.
