The ANES 2012 Time Series is a dual-mode survey (face-to-face and Internet) with two independent samples. Cases selected for the face-to-face sample could not be interviewed on the Internet, and cases selected for the Internet survey could not be interviewed in person. The Internet sample was drawn from panel members of GfK Knowledge Networks. The face-to-face sample used an address-based, stratified, multi-stage cluster sample in 125 census tracts. The face-to-face sample also featured oversamples of blacks and Hispanics.

Original dataset includes 3 weight variables:

weight_ftf

for face-to-face sample analysis alone

weight_web

for Internet sample analysis alone

weight_full

for combined sample analysis
