About 1000-1500 people participate in all kinds of surveys in
Armenia and this average number of participants serves basis for
observations. According to the "Armenian Sociological Association",
they conduct surveys with the participation of 1000-2000 respondents
and, as a rule, their opinion polls reflect the reality. According
to the Association, the number of respondents depends on the customer.
Armen Sargsyan, specialist of "MMPR" Company mentioned that their
opinion polls included about 700 respondents in Yerevan, while in
regions - about 1500 respondents.
"We cannot say definitely whether the respondents are objective or
answer to our questions correctly. We do not have the right to demand
anything from them since they give us information", he said.
About 1500 people participate in the surveys conducted by the Armenian
centre of strategic and national investigations. As Susan Barseghyan,
head of the center said the index of respondents was not important,
more important was the problem they were trying to reveal.
"Few people participate in case of small inquiries and more people -
if the inquiry is more comprehensive", she said to "A1+".

7000 citizens have participated in their surveys. According to them
about 1650 respondents participate in inclusive inquiries and about
100 respondents - in small inquiries.
