AmeriSpeak is a probability-based panel, meaning that respondents have a non-zero chance of selection. AmeriSpeak households are drawn from NORC National Frame, an area probability sample funded and managed by NORC and used for several NORC studies including the General Social Survey and the Survey of Consumer Finances. NORC’s National Frame is designed to provide over 99% sample coverage by supplementing the USPS Delivery Sequence File. [22]
