The sillyness continues:
Headline: "1/2 of programmers prefer to work at a company that does pair programming"
Actual Question: "If pair programming was a common practice at a company, would it affect your interest in working there?"
The headline suggests 1/2 people are explicitly choosing paired workplaces over solo; the question just says "is this something on your radar?" and is way more passive.
