We would also like the CATI program to include a variable indicating when a pop-up help option is used.


All items with an asterisk “*” are new. Any statements in brackets “[…]” are only read aloud if necessary. Any items in angled brackets “<…>” should not be read aloud if respondent says “Yes” before examples are provided; if respondent responds “No” before examples are provided, read examples. For the pilot, time to complete will be recorded for each Core and Module, as well as time to complete a select portion of individual questions. Questions that will be individually timed are marked with a plus sign “+”. Additional help language will be developed/refined from the 2012 SPPA interviewer manual and additional cognitive testing.

CLOSE INTERVIEW.


1 Because the pilot study will be an independent study, additional demographic questions will need to be asked prior to entering into the SPPA. These questions will be taken directly from the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS). We will include items for age, gender, race, ethnicity, education, number of children in the home, and ages of children in the home.

2 For Core 1, items ending A or B are reserved for Respondent; items ending C or D are reserved for Spouse/Partner. This is the only module in the survey that includes spouse/partner questions.

3 In 2012 SPPA, this item included help language “such as symphony, chamber, or choral music”. We have omitted the help language given that contemporary symphony, chamber, and choral music includes music forms beyond classical.

4 In 2012 SPPA, this item included help language “such as symphony, chamber, or choral music”. We have omitted the help language given that contemporary symphony, chamber, and choral music includes music forms beyond classical.

5 Additional cognitive testing will be completed on this question. The 2012 version of this question made it seem as though “other” referred to “other elementary or high school performances”, rather than the intended “other kinds of performances”.

6 This help language was originally part of a similar item in 2012-Core 2.

7 In 2012 SPPA-Core 1, the maximum response option for this item was 97 books. We have modified this question to reflect the response options from 2012 SPPA-Core 2 item, which allowed up to 900 books.

9 “During the last 12 months” should be read for first item, but only read if necessary for additional items in this question. Interviewer note: Include any reading of novels or short stories, poetry, or plays in the last 12 months, regardless of whether it was in books, magazines, or newspapers in paper form or online. This is help language included in 2012 SPPA Interviewer manual.

11 “During the last 12 months, with the exception of work or school” should be read for first item, but only read if necessary for additional items in this question. Items C and E were asked in 2008 SPPA about “reading preferences.” Additional cognitive testing will be completed during the Pilot Study.

18 Coding for this item starts at 2, not at 1 (in Module A, 1 is reserved for “at least once a day”). This adjustment was made to make it easier for analysis.

19 This item is from 2012 SPPA, but with two new response options: I and J. Also, Item F originally was specific to art galleries or museums. Pilot will test for frequency of these items and lower frequency items will be lumped together into the “some other location” option in the final instrument, as needed.

20 This set of items was adapted from the 2012 General Social Survey—Arts Module. New items in the above series are I and J.

21 Tablet -a computer contained entirely in a flat touch screen that uses a stylus, digital pen, or fingertip as the primary input device instead of a keyboard or mouse

40 Interviewer note: For questions about lessons or classes -- if respondents ask, classes or lessons taken online should be included.

41 In 2012 SPPA, art appreciation and music appreciation were split into two items.

42 This Item is based on an item in the Texas Rural Survey on Arts and Culture (Theodori, Hudec, & Drumm, 2015; access at https://www.arts.gov/sites/default/files/Research-Art-Works-SHSU.pdf)
