Public attitudes to coronavirus: April summary
High level findings from recent polling work on public attitudes to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in Scotland.
Annex A: Sample sizes
The Ipsos MORI sample is broadly representative of the adult population aged 16-74. Data is weighted to reflect the age and gender profile of the Scottish population aged 16-74. A Scottish boost sample was included in the Ipsos MORI global adviser attitudes survey from wave 5 onwards.
YouGov apply weighting to the data to match the population profile to adjust for any over/under representations and to maximise consistency from wave to wave. Parameters used include age, gender, social class, region and level of education.
