How Interested Are People in the World Cup Finals in Qatar?
Before the start of this year’s football World Cup Finals, almost two thirds of Polish adults (64%) declared they would be watching the TV coverage. Interest is lower this year than four years ago, but greater than in 2014, when Poland did not get through to the finals. Interest this year is at the same level as 2002 and 2006, when Poland did qualify.

The largest group of respondents are those saying they will try to watch all the Poland games (23%), while one in five (20%) wants to watch all broadcast matches. Although general interest in the TV coverage is lower than four years ago, the proportion of those who will try to watch all broadcast games is much the same (20% compared to 21% in 2018).

More on this subject in the CBOS report.
This ‘Current Events and Problems’ survey (391) was conducted using a mixed-mode procedure on a representative sample of named adult residents of Poland, randomly selected from the National Identity Number (PESEL) register. Respondents independently selected one of the following methods: Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI); Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI), respondents receiving researchers’ telephone numbers in an introductory letter from CBOS; Computer Assisted Web Interview (CAWI), where respondents filled in the online questionnaire independently, gaining access by means of a login and password provided in an introductory letter from CBOS. In all three cases the questionnaire had the same structure and comprised the same questions. The survey was carried out between 7–17 November 2022 inclusive on a sample of 1038 people (58.5% using the CAPI method, 24% CATI and 17.5% CAWI). CBOS has been conducting statutory research using the above procedure since May 2020, stating in each case the percentage of personal, telephone and internet interviews.
