The survey illustrates "frame dependence," which refers to the phenomenon where people's decisions or responses change based on how information is presented to them, even if the underlying information is the same. In this case, the change in survey results due to the positive or negative wording of questions, despite asking for the same information, demonstrates frame dependence.
