How do we measure political trust?

How can we measure political trust, legitimacy and participation? Our ActEU project looks at the impact of political trust on our democratic systems, but how can we know if trust is declining, increasing, or fluctuating in Europe?

This TEPSA Animated Explainer, created in collaboration with the ActEU project, explores the results of the ActEU survey, a key tool for our researchers used to investigate the project’s main questions, and will test your knowledge of our ActEU findings.

The video is based on the “Teaching script to the online methods workshop on collected data and all applied methods to measure the concept of political trust and legitimacy in Europe”, authored by Daniela Braun, Daniel Gayo-Avello, Alex Hartland, Ann-Kathrin Reinl, Kristina Weissenbach.
