2016 American Family Survey

In July of 2016, the Deseret News and The Center for the Study of Elections and Democracy at Brigham Young University fielded a survey on the family in America. This survey was administered by YouGov to a sample of 3,000 adult respondents whose characteristics mirror those of the general population. This report details the raw results of that survey and some of the key demographic breakdowns. Each version of the American Family Survey has different in-depth modules. The 2016 AFS explores authoritarianism, politics, and social sources of help for families.
