Abstract (CPANDA): As one of ten participating communities in a coordinated data collection effort organized by the Performing Arts Research Coalition (PARC), a partnership of five major national service organizations in the arts, Seattle area residents were surveyed on a series of topics related to attendance at performing arts events. Questions were asked regarding rates of participation, the perceived value of the performing arts to individuals and to communities, and barriers to greater attendance. Areas included in the sample were King, Snohomish, Pierce, and Kitsap counties. Among other criteria, Seattle was selected as a study site because of the presence of financially and managerially strong local arts organizations and because at least three of the five disciplines encompassed by the participating national service organizations were represented there. The five participating service organizations in the PARC project were the American Symphony Orchestra League, the Association of Performing Arts Presenters, Dance/USA, OPERA America, and Theatre Communications Group. The project was coordinated by OPERA America, with research guidance from the Urban Institute, and supported by a grant from The Pew Charitable Trusts.

Study Description -- Methodology

Data Collector: Princeton Data Source, Princeton Survey Research Associates

Sampling Procedure:random

Mode of Data Collection: telephone interviews

Type of Research Instrument: structured

Characteristics of Data Collection Situation: Survey respondents were selected using random digit dialing. Every active block of telephone numbers (area code + exchange + two-digit block number) were included for King, Snohomish, Pierce and Kitsap counties. After random selection of a number within a block, two more digits were randomly added to complete the number. Numbers that matched listings in business directories were purged from the list. Calls were staggered over times of the day and days of the week to maximize the chance of making contact with potential respondents.

Response Rate: 36%

Estimates of Sampling Error: The design effect for the Seattle household telephone survey results in a margin of error of plus or minus 4.0 percent.

Methodology (CPANDA) : Princeton Survey Research Associates conducted telephone surveys of 800 random households in the coverage area of the study in late winter and early spring 2002, according to procedures developed by the Urban Institute.

Methodology : While a response rate of 36 percent is reasonably high for a study of this type, it raises questions of nonresponse bias. To investigate the potential for such bias, we compared the characteristics of the 800 respondents with known characteristics of the population. Population estimates are based on the 1990 Decennial Census, with adjustments by information collected in the Current Population Survey in fall of 2001. The summaries indicate that women are overrepresented among the survey respondents, while men and Asian/Pacific Islanders are underrepresented. Overall, however, there is considerable similarity between survey respondents and the population estimate on race, sex and age characteristics.
