 Weighting has been employed to balance demographics and
ensure that the sample’s composition reflects that of the adult
population according to the most recent country census data.
 A survey with an unweighted probability sample of this size
would have an estimated margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage
points for a sample of 1,000 and an estimated margin of error
of +/- 4.5 percentage points for a 500 sample 19 times out of
20.
 In 16 of the 25 countries surveyed internet penetration is
sufficiently high to think of the samples as representative of
the wider population within the age ranges covered:
Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany,
Hungary, Israel, Italy, Japan, Poland, South Korea, Spain,
Sweden, Great Britain and United States.
 Brazil, China, India, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa
and Turkey have lower levels of internet penetration and so
these samples should not be considered nationally
representative, and instead be considered to represent a more
affluent, connected population. These are still a vital social
group to understand in these countries, representing an
important and emerging middle class.
