More Americans think the world is changing too fast
The Ipsos Consumer Tracker, fielded on Ipsos' Omnibus platform, asks Americans questions about culture, the economy and the forces that shape our lives. Here's one thing we learned this week.
Why we asked: This is an admittedly catch-all question we’ve asked a lot over the year on the tracker about a wide range of attitudes about the world, brands, sports, religion, etc.
What we found: Two in three (65%) have felt stressed in the last month and more than eight in ten (83%) say the world is changing too fast. Both of those feelings show a slight uptick from when we last asked a year ago. However, it’s worth noting that those are both the highest levels of agreement we have seen at any point. So another piece of evidence of how stressed America is at the moment, especially as the remainder of the battery is generally flat compared to previous waves.
