Each year, a Public Perceptions Report is completed which reports on New Zealander’s perceptions of local content, such as awareness and understanding of the role of NZ On Air, Statement of Intent indicators, and measures sources of music. It is a quantitative survey that uses Computer Assisted Telephone interviewing to randomly identify households and complete a 15 minute interview, resulting in a total of 500 respondents. Wherever possible, comparisons are made between results of this survey and previous NZ On Air quantitative surveys of the general public.
