Public Voice
Overview
Public Voice is a panel research tool that allows online surveying of a randomly selected sample to ensure a true cross-section of the population. It has been specifically designed for research that has social value or requires a gold-standard evidence base.
Key features
Data from a random sample, not a self-selected one
Benefit from lower risk of sample bias, more accurate margins of error, and a reduced risk of panel conditioning.
Flexible and high-quality tool
Our specialist evaluators help clients to test and refine questionnaires and advise on every technical element to deliver on their needs.
Gold standard evidence about society
Public Voice methods avoid unrepresentative samples whilst retaining the measurement, speed and cost advantages of online surveying.
With Public Voice, we can implement longitudinal research – the same survey repeated at intervals with the same people – not just one-off ‘snapshot’ research. Most of those we recruit for Public Voice stay on the panel. We do this by limiting the volume of research studies so our members are not overwhelmed, rewarding them fairly for their help, and by using multiple communication channels and time-points to invite participation.
With Public Voice, we can provide a nationally representative sample of up to 10,000 adults, allowing granular analysis of your data. However, we also offer complementary sample boosts via our ABOS random sample survey method. These samples can be of any scale and in any location in the UK
