CNOS Methodology

For these approval ratings, we’ve focused on two core aspects to obtain a comprehensive and reliable survey research- Diverse population group, and a decently outgrown sample size.

We have adopted two ways to ensure a diversified sample size. One is through “simple random sampling,” in which we prepared a list of people who could be questioned and started assigning random number against it. Finally, we made calls to all those assigned numbers and recorded their opinions.

CNOS understands the importance of selecting the right sample size in order to obtain an accurate analysis. Other than digital ways of reaching out to people, we undertook an in-person survey to calculate Net approval rating of the leader.

For analysis of approval polls at the national-level, the State unit is divided into Assembly Sampling Units (ASUs). Each selected ASU is subdivided into smaller sections known as city blocks or rural blocks. Then, from those final regions, people to interview are chosen.

Polls that are conducted to calculate a net approval rating are seen on three metrics,

  • Approval refers to the percentage of the people who approves of you as their leader.
  • The number of people that do not accept you as their leader is represented by Disapproval.
  • The term “neutral” refers to a voter who is undecided about whether or not to vote for you. It could draw two types of users: former supporters who have now become quiet listeners due to rising anti-incumbency sentiment. Second, there are individuals who believe that no other political party is worthy of being voted for completely.

A high popularity rating, for instance, could help that leader get support for his or her agendas, whereas a high disapproval rating demonstrates the built-in anti-incumbency.

CNOS conducts surveys on a regular basis and publishes fortnightly reports with the updated approval rankings. We ensure that we follow best practices around scale development, question phrasing, survey design and randomization to ensure validity and minimum bias.

We conduct over 3000 daily interviews about leadership approval using a variety of channels- ranging from face-to-face, to online collection with an alternative of CATI methodology (Computer-assisted telephone interviewing).
