Our survey has a sample of 10,000 respondents who are prime-age, employed US workers.5 The sample is representative of the US population in terms of gender, age, region, total household income, and education. We collected the data in April and May 2022 in collaboration with Dynata, an online panel provider commonly used in economics (Andre et al., 2022). Respondents start the survey by completing a series of demographic questions. Then, they answer our key questions regarding financial stress and how it affects their economic lives. To obtain high-quality responses, the survey is relatively short.
