The Survey of the Center for Sociological Research (CIS) is a statistical survey that is carried out periodically in Spain with the aim of knowing the opinion of the population on different current issues.

The survey is carried out through personal interviews with a representative sample of the Spanish population and is used as a tool to find out the degree of satisfaction, opinion and attitudes of the population regarding different topics, such as politics, the economy, society, etc. .

The results of the survey are used by different public and private institutions, as well as by the press and the media, to find out the opinion of the population and make decisions accordingly. It is very common to hear that according to the CIS survey, political party A is above party B in popular opinion, for example.

It has been carried out since 1977, and among the latest studies carried out is the consumer confidence index, carried out in November 2022.
