The National Coalition Party (NCP) has been overtaken by the Social Democratic Party (SDP) as the most attractive party in a party image barometer poll.
The Finns Party also overtook the NCP, leaving Petteri Orpo's Centre-right grouping with the third most positive image among Finland's political parties.
This was the first time in two years the SDP has led the image barometer. The last three times the poll has taken place, the NCP was top.
The results come from a poll covering the six largest parties in Finland, conducted by Kantar Public. The results of the poll are not public, but Yle has obtained them for publication.
The Centre Party was the lowest-ranked of the six largest parties, with the Greens overtaking them to rank fifth.
Kantar Public says the differences between several of the parties' ratings are quite small, with the three largest parties' ratings now closer than before.
The image survey is based on 15 different areas, which are merged to form a single evaluation of the image of each party.
Respondents were asked about how skillful the parties' leaders are, and how attractive they are to voters, as well as their trust in each party and their opinion on the parties' ability to propose sensible and implementable policies.
The NCP was mentioned as arrogant by 46 percent of respondents, and the fewest mentions as a people-centred party (18 percent).
Some 30 percent of respondents said the SDP is arrogant, while 42 percent of respondents noted them down as people-centred. The Finns Party was regarded as arrogant by 42 percent of respondents, and people-centred by 29 percent.
The SDP's rating has remained constant since last autumn, while the NCP's has suffered slightly. The Finns Party's image, meanwhile, has "improved quite significantly".
The poll was answered by an internet panel of 1,347 people between 15-22 February. The margin of error was 2.7 percentage points.
