Would Polish People Fight Back Like Ukrainians?

Recently a question has been appearing in various forms in Polish public debate: in a hypothetical scenario, in which Poland found itself in a similar situation to Ukraine today, would Poles fight back like the Ukrainians are now? CBOS asked this question in the June survey and found that respondents’ opinions were rather divided. The dominant feeling was that Poles would do as well as Ukrainians (40%), while 27% thought Poles would do worse and 21% that they’d do better, with 12% of those surveyed not having an opinion on this subject.

The conviction that Poles would fight back better than Ukrainians was more common among men than women, within the youngest group surveyed (especially students) and people with rightwing views. The view that Poles would do worse was particularly prevalent in the 25-34 age group, among big city dwellers, the better educated and those with the highest per capita income. This also applied to people less likely to participate in religious practices and who held leftwing views.
More on this subject in the CBOS report.
This ‘Current Events and Problems’ survey (386) 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 30 May and 9 June 2022 inclusive on a sample of 1050 people (61.6% using the CAPI method, 23.1% CATI and 15.2% 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.
