title: Version 1

description: This Pew Research Center survey
asked a nationally representative sample of 7,006 Asian American adults about
their experiences living in, and views of, the United States. It covers topics
such as racial and ethnic identity, religious identities and practices, policy
priorities, discrimination and racism in America, affirmative action, global
affairs, living with economic hardship and immigrant experiences.
The survey sampled U.S. adults who
self-identify as Asian, either alone or in combination with other races or
Hispanic ethnicity. It included oversamples of the Chinese, Filipino, Indian,
Korean and Vietnamese populations. Respondents were drawn from a national
sample of residential mailing addresses, which included addresses from all 50
states and the District of Columbia. Specialized surname list frames were used
to supplement the sample. The survey was conducted on paper and web in six
languages: Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), English, Hindi, Korean,
Tagalog and Vietnamese. Responses were collected from July 5, 2022, to Jan. 27,
2023.
description: The Asian American Survey was conducted for Pew Research Center (Pew) as part of its nonpartisan mission to inform the public about the issues, attitudes, and trends shaping the world. The primary goal was to provide a broad overview of the characteristics, attitudes, and experiences of Asian Americans in the U.S. The survey continued the line of research previously conducted by Pew in this area, including in-depth focus group conversations held with this population.
description: Households were sampled from an address-based sample supplemented by surname list samples. Invitations to participate were mailed to households with instructions on how to complete the survey online. If households did not complete the online survey, a paper copy of the survey was mailed to them. The overall response rate for the Asian American sample was 13.3 percent. The survey included questions about respondent and household characteristics, and attitudes about their community and the United States of America.
description: Weights should be used for all substantive analysis. The data files include both an
overall weight (<strong>P_RAKEDW0</strong>) as well as replicate weights
(<strong>P_RAKEDW1</strong>-<strong>P_RAKEDW100</strong>). Both sets of weights will yield the same point
estimate, but replicate weights are useful to reduce variance.
For state level analysis of California, special weights may be used. The data files include both an overall California weight (<strong>P_RAKEDW0_CA</strong>) as well as replicate California weights (<strong>P_RAKEDW1_CA</strong>-<strong>P_RAKEDW100_CA</strong>). Both sets of weights will yield the same point
estimate, but replicate weights are useful to reduce variance.
description: Response Rates: The
overall response rate for the Asian American sample in the Pew Research Center
survey was 13.3 percent. This overall response rate is the product of the screener
response rate (17.0 percent) and the conditional response rate for the extended
questionnaire (77.9 percent).
description: The sampling design of the survey used a stratified, systematic sample. The survey utilized an address-based sample (ABS) derived from the USPS Computerized Delivery Sequence file (CDSF) and maintained by the Marketing Systems Group (MSG). This ABS sample was supplemented by surname list samples.
