There has been a sharp rise in the number of Americans who believe the US role as a world leader is on the decline, a survey suggests.
The proportion of those saying the US is playing a less powerful global role than 10 years ago has risen from 17% in 2002 to 37%, the Chicago Council on Global Affairs said.
