Abstract:
This request is for clearance of an arts supplement for the 2012 General Social Survey (GSS), to be conducted by the National Opinion Research Center. The supplement will include questions about self-reported motivations and barriers associated with attending selected art activities. The results will help to address an existing research gap of why Americans choose to attend—or not attend—activities such as visual arts exhibits or music, dance, or theater performances. These data will supplement the data collected by the Survey of Public Participation in the Arts, which was not designed to collect this information. The GSS is one of the most cited and recognized sources of information in the social sciences. The data will be publicly available and the basis for a range of NEA reports and independent research publications.
