1 All of the survey results cited in this eBook come from an Ipsos Public Affairs poll conducted for IBM from December 30, 2013, to January 13, 2014, in the United States. A national sample of 2,032 adults aged 18 and older was interviewed online. Weighting was employed to balance demographics and ensure that the sample’s composition reflects that of the U.S. adult population according to U. S. census data, and to provide results intended to approximate the sample universe. The data were weighted to the American population data by region, gender, age and income.
