Opinion polls are an increasingly prominent and problematic part of politics in modern societies. This project is expected to produce an Australian history that documents and explains the diverse and changing methods, priorities and styles of the pollsters since polling was introduced to Australia in 1941. It aims to examine the growing media coverage of the polls, their impact, and the controversies they have engendered as well as the performances of polls in predicting voter behaviour. Combining archival research, oral histories and quantitative methods, the project aims to enrich our understanding of the nature, consequences and history of polling nationally and transnationally. It also aims to produce a database containing over 75 years of poll results.

民意调查是现代社会政治中日益突出和有问题的一部分。该项目预计将产生一部澳大利亚历史，记录和解释自1941年澳大利亚引入民意调查以来，民意调查者的方法、优先事项和风格的多样性和变化。它的目的是审查越来越多的媒体报道的民意调查，他们的影响，和他们所产生的争议，以及民意调查在预测选民行为的表现。该项目结合档案研究、口述历史和定量方法，旨在丰富我们对全国和跨国民意调查的性质、后果和历史的理解。它还旨在建立一个包含75年以上民意调查结果的数据库。
