| PSB tracker 2017 | 29 March 2018 | Public sector broadcasting tracking survey: attitudes, satisfaction with provision and importance of characteristics associated with PSB provision in the UK. Note: We have applied a new weighting regime to the 2017 data to take into account large differences between responses from online and offline panellists. The previous weighting regime used ANOVA analysis to bring in line those variables which explained the most variation between panellists recruited online and face-to-face. However, this only explained part of the variance. The new weighting regime adjusts for an equal proportion of the overall variance between the two modes but is based on fewer variables. The key metric is the in the difference in the number of channels viewed by online and face-to-face panellists. | PSB Tracker 2017 data tables (PDF, 10.1 MB) |
