Performing Arts Research Coalition 2002: Household Surveys

The Performing Arts Research Coalition 2002: Household Surveys is a collaborative effort of five national service organizations in the performing arts. Residents of ten communities were surveyed on a series of topics related to attendance at performing arts events. The ten communities surveyed were: Alaska, Cincinatti, Denver, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Austin, Boston, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Sarasota (FL) and Washington D.C. Questions were asked regarding rates of participation, the perceived value of the performing arts to individuals and to communities, and barriers to greater attendance. Among other criteria, these communities were selected as study sites 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 in each area. 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. A total of 8,161 respondents in 10 communities completed telephone interviews in 2002 and 2003. PARC data include administrative surveys, audience surveys, subscriber surveys, and community/household surveys.表演艺术研究联盟2002年家庭调查（Performing Arts Research Coalition 2002: Household Surveys）是由五家美国全国性表演艺术服务机构联合发起的合作项目。本次调研针对10个社区的居民展开，调研议题围绕表演艺术活动观演相关的多项内容展开。本次调研覆盖的10个社区分别为：阿拉斯加州、辛辛那提、丹佛、匹兹堡、西雅图、奥斯汀、波士顿、明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗、萨拉索塔（佛罗里达州）以及华盛顿哥伦比亚特区。 调研问题涵盖观演参与率、表演艺术对个体及社区的感知价值，以及提升观演率的阻碍因素等维度。本次调研的社区筛选遵循多重标准：当地拥有财务状况与运营管理能力俱佳的本地艺术机构，且每个调研区域均覆盖参与合作的全国服务机构所涵盖的五大艺术门类中的至少三类。 参与PARC项目的五家服务机构分别为：美国交响乐团联盟（American Symphony Orchestra League）、表演艺术呈现者协会（Association of Performing Arts Presenters）、美国舞蹈协会（Dance/USA）、美国歌剧协会（OPERA America）以及戏剧通讯集团（Theatre Communications Group）。本项目由美国歌剧协会统筹，城市研究所（Urban Institute）提供研究指导，并获得皮尤慈善信托基金（The Pew Charitable Trusts）的资助。 2002年至2003年间，10个社区共计8161名受访者完成了电话访谈。PARC数据集包含行政调研问卷、观众调研问卷、订阅者调研问卷以及社区/家庭调研问卷。
