All you need to know before survey one next week

The first survey for 2014 began on 19 January and will be released next Tuesday March 11 at 10am.
 
The industry has worked closely with GfK to ensure the currency and validity of the radio audience measurement system is maintained and there is a smooth transitionfrom Nielsen to GfK.

To ensure all radio listeners continue to have a voice, GFK has created more ways of interacting with them.

  • 80% recruited face-to-face, completing paper diaries
  • 20% recruited online, completing e-diaries
Fieldwork interviewers will now use a tablet PC to capture respondent data. This makes it easier for interviewers and allows real-time management of fieldwork information to ensure quotas for difficult to reach demographics are met to deliver representative sample composition.

The radio survey results will be available in conjunction with AudienScope, a survey of 5,000 respondents per year, conducted quarterly. AudienScope complements the ratings by building a more holistic view of radio listeners by getting to know who they really are. It looks at things like response to advertising, emotional connection to stations, and motivations for listening.

The overall results on survey day will be presented in a similar format as past surveys (see below), but stations will have new ways to slice and dice the data by using various ‘gold standard’ accredited software programs for analysis.

The paper diary sample is selected using a stratified multistage probability sample, where respondents aged 10 years and over, are randomly selected using a Birthday Recruitment method. Each market is split into geographic regions which are then further divided into Statistical Areas. Sampling is sequential over time, with up to four calls being made on each selected household, spaced across several survey periods.

The electronic diary is designed to replicate the content of the GfK paper diary, and collects quarter hour listening data from the respondent for a seven day period. Respondents can access their e-diary from anywhere using their unique diary login and password. The e-diary can be completed from home using a personal computer or tablet or even on the move using GfK’s mobile diary (m-diary) which can be accessed via any mobile internet browser.

 

radioinfo will bring you the results next Tuesday morning.
