Matthew Costello et al., « Radicalization on the Internet: Virtual Extremism in the United States, 2015-2017 », Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research, ID : 10.3886/ICPSR37679.v1
This study includes three waves of the Online Extremism Survey (collected in 2015, 2016, and 2017) which offers information on a host of issues related to online hate material. Data were collected online from a sample of youths and young adults between the ages of 15 and 36 who voluntarily agreed to participate in research surveys. Survey Sample International (SSI) was used to collect the data. SSI recruits potential participants through random digit dialing, banner ads, and other permission-based techniques. These datasets contain information on exposure to online hate material, targeting by online hate material, production of online hate material, and responses to online hate material, among many additional topics related to online hate. The datasets also contain key demographic information on respondents, including age, gender, race/ethnicity, immigrant status, education, employment status, political ideology, and religious affiliation, among other indicators.
