Abstract (CPANDA): The 1987 Americans and the Arts was the fifth in a series of studies measuring participation in and attitudes about the arts and arts in education. Topics include attendance, participation, art and education, funding, individual artists, TV and the arts, children and the arts, and support for the arts.

Methodology (CPANDA) : This survey was administered by telephone interviews to 1501 respondents selected from the U.S. population 18 and over. Interviews were conducted from March 13 to April 6, 1987. Due to methodological differences, caution is advised in making comparisons with measures of arts participation from the 1973 and 1975 Americans and the Arts studies which used face-to-face interviewing.
