Studies by Country
The AmericasBarometer, one of the many and growing activities of LAPOP Lab, is the only survey of democratic public opinion and behavior that covers the Americas. It is an effort by the LAPOP Lab to measure democratic values and behaviors in the Americas using national probability samples of voting-age adults. In 2004, the first round of AmericasBarometer surveys was implemented with eleven participating countries; the second took place in 2006 and incorporated 22 countries throughout the hemisphere. In 2008, 24 countries throughout the Americas were again included, and over 36,000 individuals. In 2010, 26 countries were included with Trinidad & Tobago and Suriname added for the first time, and over 43,000 individuals were surveyed. In 2012, 26 countries were included again, and over 41,000 surveys were carried out. The 2014 round includes surveys conducted in 28 countries across the Americas and more than 50,000 interviews. In the 2016/17 round, 29 countries were surveyed and more than 43,000 interviews were collected. The 2018/19 round, included 20 countries and more than 31,000 interviews. The 2021 round, was conducted in 22 countries and includes more than 64,000 interviews. The 2023 round, which marks the latest round of the AmericasBarometer, was conducted in 26 countries and includes more than 41,000 interviews.
