The Lib Dems saw their support hold steady at eight per cent, while the Greens are up three points at seven per cent.
Reform UK are down one point at four per cent.
The survey, conducted May 13 to 17, is the lowest polling the SNP has seen since the 2014 independence referendum.
The survey also showed that support for staying in the union is at 55 per cent, while just 45 per cent of people want Scotland to secure independence.
The latest polling comes after John Swinney took over as the SNP leader, following Humza Yousaf's resignation.
The former First Minister resigned after ending the powersharing deal between the SNP and Scottish Greens earlier this month.
He was facing one vote of no confidence tabled by the Scottish Conservatives, while Scottish Labour had tabled a second vote of no confidence in the Scottish Government as a whole.
Announcing his intention to resign, the outgoing First Minister admitted to having “underestimated” the level of hurt ending the power-sharing deal with the Greens would have.
Yousaf officially resigned as first minister in May, giving an emotional address in Holyrood.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
He said it was "an honour and a privilege" to serve the people of Scotland, adding that he has "deep respect for this parliament and to all of those in opposition and indeed to my own colleagues here alongside me."
Yousaf said: "That respect will always continue to be here."
