This research will provide ongoing tracking of NYADMC activities among primary target audiences (youth 14-16 and their parents). Results will provide ongoing intelligence to inform campaign media and messaging strategies.
To allow for transition from place-based mall intercepts (for teens) and random-digit dialing (for parents) to 100% online panel methodology, both methods will be conducted simultaneously for approximately 8 weeks during year one of the tracking survey. This overlap of techniques will allow us to see if there are any statistically significant differences between the two testing methods prior to moving to 100% online panel testing.
