Is there another page? I couldn’t find a link with more info on the survey but every chart says they ask the question specifically about adults. I didn’t look at the “actual percentage” studies but it would be pretty disingenuous to compare their surveys to the percentages of ALL citizens. If that was a bad assumption and they’re actually comparing apples to oranges, please let me know!
And as for the survey respondents - you need to be 16 to make a YouGov account so they definitely weren’t (deliberately) asking children.
It’s literally in the methodology statement for the survey…
Methodology: This article includes findings from two U.S. News surveys conducted by YouGov on two nationally representative samples of 1,000 U.S. adult citizens interviewed online from January 14-20, 2022. The first survey included questions on groups involving race, education, income, family, gender, and sexuality, while the second survey included questions on religion, politics, and other miscellaneous groups. The samples were weighted according to gender, age, race, and education based on the 2018 American Community Survey, conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, as well as 2016 and 2020 Presidential votes (or non-votes). Respondents were selected from YouGov’s opt-in panel to be representative of all U.S. citizens. Real proportions were taken from a variety of sources, including the U.S. Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, YouGov’s internal poll results, and the results of other well-established polling firms. Most estimates were collected within the past three years; the oldest is from 2009. Because the real estimates presented cover a range of time periods, they may differ from actual population sizes at the time our survey was conducted.
I’m happy to be corrected and I do agree it’s a bit ambiguous but I don’t really see any evidence that this study represents the entire population. It says right there that adults were surveyed and the questions include the word “adults”
Ha! I’ve looked at your comment history and modlog and you’re really not. You get defensive and have difficulty remaining civil. I’m done with you, goodbye.

This was a survey given to adults about adults (and likely by adults, too)

Lmao. Did I already seen your alt? Is it lilbokchoy?
Anyway,
That is the only part that even implies kids are included - in contrast to several parts that imply only adults.
Get a life, man
