Internet/computer technology (20%), space exploration/space flights (13%) and medical advances (12%) are the three major scientific discoveries of the 20th century.
Over fourteen years, the share of those who think that science and new technology have a positive impact on human life quality and life span has increased by 22% (77%). Negative impacts are mentioned by 16% (-11 p.p. compared to 2007).
Russian nationwide VCIOM-Sputnik survey was conducted on February 7, 2021. Results are based on telephone interviews with 1,600 Russians aged 18 and older. Stratified dual-frame random sample based on a complete list of Russian landline and mobile phone numbers was used. The data were weighted according to selection probability and social and demographic characteristics. The margin of error at a 95% confidence level does not exceed 2.5%. In addition to sampling error, minor changes to the wording of questions and different circumstances arising during the fieldwork can introduce bias into the survey.
