NYAAPOR's 2006 Outstanding Acheivement
Award Winner:
The Roper Center for Public Opinion Research!
We are proud to honor The Roper Center with the prestigious NYAAPOR Outstanding Achievement Award. As The Roper Center enters its 60th year, it continues to maintain the largest archive of survey research and public.
The award was accepted by Roper Center Officers, Lois Timms-Ferrara and Marc Maynard. Warren Mitofsky, President of Mitofsky International and President of NYAAPOR presented the introductory remarks.
Founded in 1947 by Elmo Roper, the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research is the leading educational facility in the field of public opinion. The Center exists to promote the intelligent, responsible and imaginative use of public opinion in addressing the problems faced by Americans and citizens of other nations. In an increasingly complex and interdependent global environment, the Roper Center hopes to foster increased international understanding and to promote cross-national research. Through the maintenance of the world's largest archive of survey data, and through its programs of publication, presentation and advanced research, the Roper Center strives to improve the practice of survey research and the use of survey data in the United States and abroad. The roster of organizations now contributing data is a virtual "who's who" of contemporary opinion research. Several thousand polls taken in some 70 foreign countries are also housed in the Center's library. By constantly adding to the domestic and international collections of survey data, the Roper Center maintains what is by far the most complete collection of public opinion information in existence.
