Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research

The Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR) (ar: المركز الفلسطيني للبحوث السياسية والمسحية) is a Palestinian research organisation and think tank based in Ramallah established for "advancing scholarship and knowledge on immediate issues of concern to Palestinians in three areas: domestic politics and government, strategic analysis and foreign policy, and public opinion polls and survey research".[1] It has been conducting opinion polls in these fields since the mid-1990s.[2]

It is the Palestinian counterpart of the Arab Barometer poll.[3]

The organization has been the object of hostility ranging from pressure from the Palestinian Authority to mob violence.[4]
