Platforms for Politics

These are replication files attached to a survey conducted in four countries in 2019 and 2021 (n=12,302). The sample is based on an online panel with quotas used to ensure representation of the population in each country (sex, age, education). Each year in each country, there were roughly 1,500 respondents; each year included a new set of respondents. The data include platform adoption, self-assessed exposure to political information, and posting political content to seven social media platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Reddit, Snapchat, and WhatsApp.
