Television Ratings Television executives need television ratings to: Establish advertising rates Make program decisions by methods of comparison Make program decisions by knowing who is and who is NOT watching

Television Ratings Nielsen Media Research collects data through: Diaries Peoplemeters Each method has strengths and weaknesses.

Television Ratings Ratings measure: If the television set is on What channel the set is tuned to Demographic information about who is watching

Television Ratings Ratings don’t measure: If the person is watching actively or passively Why the person watched The quality of the program

Television Ratings National Television Index (NTI) This sample is representative of the population of the United States. About 3,100 households (out of million HH) are randomly selected from throughout the U.S. to participate. These ratings are compiled daily and weekly and information is provided to networks and the media.

Television Ratings National Station Index (NSI) Information is provided quarterly to each of the stations in the United States. Information is collected through Peoplemeters in the top 60 markets; diaries are used in remaining markets.

Television Ratings Viewers in each of the more than 200 television markets are surveyed aat least four times a year in four-week periods called “sweeps.” Major rating periods are February, May, July and November.

Television Ratings -- Key Terms DMA: designated market area (each county in the U.S. is assigned to one television market even though residents may receive overlapping signals) The number of television household in the DMA determines the market’s size or rank.
