Rigorous research methods that deliver pinpoint accuracy
Understanding public opinion requires going beyond simple yes or no responses. Our methodology combines polling rigour with elasticity testing to reveal not just what people think, but how firmly they hold those views.
We maintain a balanced panel that reflects the UK's demographic diversity. Our sampling accounts for age, gender, region, social grade, education and ethnicity to ensure every voice is proportionally represented.
Our research team crafts questions that minimise bias and capture nuanced opinions. We use cognitive testing and pilot studies to ensure questions are clear and unambiguous.
We use a blend of online surveys, telephone interviews and face to face research to reach all segments of the population, including hard to reach groups often underrepresented in single method studies.
Our signature methodology measures not just opinions but their malleability. Through follow up questions and scenario testing, we determine how strongly views are held and what factors might shift them.
Our data scientists apply advanced statistical techniques including weighting, regression analysis and significance testing. We are transparent about margins of error and confidence intervals.
Traditional polls tell you where public opinion stands today. Elasticity testing tells you how stable those opinions are and where they might move tomorrow.
Our framework categorises opinions into four types:
Firm Convictions: Deeply held views unlikely to change.
Stable Preferences: Consistent opinions that could shift under significant pressure.
Soft Leanings: Malleable views susceptible to persuasion or new information.
Uncommitted: Genuinely undecided respondents.
This analysis shows 40% of supporters could potentially be persuaded.
