Totally 2040 respondents were interviewed face-to-face during the field stage.

In Donetsk and Luhansk regions the poll was conducted only in territories controlled by Ukraine’s government forces.

Statistical sample error (with probability of 0.95 and design-effect of 1.5) does not exceed 3.3% for indicators close to 50%; 2.8% for indicators close to 25%; 2.0% for indicators close to 10%; 1.4%  for indicators close to 5%.
