The analyses on AmeriSpeak Panel survey estimates indicate households recruited through NRFU have a tendency to report more moderate opinions towards policy issues and somewhat more conservative political views than the initially recruited panelists. In other words, probability-based panelists obtained by a less expensive method, compared to the more expensive NRFU method, tend to have stronger (less moderate) opinions and attitudes towards policy issues. The data is not unequivocal and there are exceptions; however, our analyses suggest that probability-based panels with low response rates and/or without a nonresponse follow-up program may overstate political and policy polarization, while the AmeriSpeak NRFU program increases the representation of persons with moderate-to-conservative opinions about policy issues.

Good to know! That also makes sense.

(It would be helpful if you could take off the URL link from the entire paragraph, though. It's hard to read this way.)
