1 Syrian Opposition Survey June 1 July 2, 2012
2 Survey Methodology
3 SURVEY METHODOLOGY From June 1-July 2, 2012, the International Republican Institute (IRI) and of Princeton, NJ (P3) surveyed members of the Syrian opposition. P3 provided consultative guidance on the survey s implementation and analysis. Due to the logistical and political complexities of the project, several months of preparation were required for both survey development and recruitment of opposition activists who had strong incountry networks that had not been permeated by the regime. To minimize the possibility of participants arrest, or any other form of regime interference, IRI and P3 employed a referral or snowball methodology relying strictly on dissidents who were known to IRI or P3. Thus the survey is not a randomized sample as would be seen in a public opinion poll and is also skewed heavily toward men, which is partially a reflection of the opposition s composition. The project primarily relied upon five networks to initiate the survey s circulation. From there, activists within and outside of Syria from different ethnic, religious, political and socioeconomic backgrounds were encouraged to circulate the survey amongst their sub-networks. The questionnaire was developed with the input of all network leaders, under the guidance of Dr. David Pollock, former chief of Near East/South Asia and Africa Research for the U.S. Information Agency. The survey was translated from English into Syrian colloquial Arabic and placed on a secure server outside of Syria with extensive security protocols to mitigate against regime tampering.
4 SURVEY METHODOLOGY Each of the five trusted network leaders was given an individual link to access the questionnaire, allowing P3 to track progress and observe any suspicious results in real-time throughout the survey s administration. Respondents were assured that their responses to the online survey would be anonymous. A total of 1,168 interviews were completed by July 2, 2012, 85 percent of respondents were male and 15 percent were female. Margin of error is not strictly applicable to this survey because of the non-random selection of respondents. Of the sample of 1,168, approximately 315 of the respondents indicated they were inside Syria when they completed the questionnaire, though there is discrepancy in the survey regarding this figure as some respondents may have inconsistently reported the place where they live versus the place where they were when taking the survey. Not all respondents answered every question. Therefore, the number of responses for any question may not total 1,168. Figures in charts and tables may not sum to 100 percent due to rounding error.
