2. 2 Contents Attitude statements – mean scores Distribution of population by segment Segment 1 – Time Poor Segment 2 – Prudent Participants Segment 3 – Restricted Segment 4 – Opting Out Segment 5 – Free & Easy Segment 6 – Experienced Seekers Summary – Engagement Summary – Interest v Ability Appendix – Segmentation method

3. 3 Attitudes statements– mean scores 1= disagree strongly - 5 = agree strongly Base: 2110 At this ‘overall’ level, most respondents like to learn and experience new things in their leisure time and value for money is a priority.

4. 4 Distribution within population Cluster analysis segments the population according to their responses to the attitude statements. Each segment has been given a name and profiled to identify demographic and behavioural traits. ‘Time Poor’ ‘Prudent Participants’ ‘Restricted’ ‘Opting Out’ ‘Free’ ‘Experienced Seekers’ 17%

5. 5 Segment 1 – ‘Time Poor’ - 21% of population Difficult to find time to take part in or attend arts and cultural activities The needs of family come first when planning leisure time Would attend more arts and cultural events if closer to home, easier access Like to learn and experience new things in leisure time Value for money is important when deciding what to do in leisure time Slightly higher than average attendance & participation levels esp. cinema. Slightly higher TV and Radio viewing and listening esp. rock/pop music and films. High use of Internet including social networking sites.

31. 31 Appendix – Segmentation method (1 of 2) The Scottish adult population has been segmented on the basis of their responses to a series of 11 attitude statements (see slide 3). This segmentation was undertaken using a combination of factor and cluster analysis approaches as described below. 1) Factor Analysis Factor analysis is a mathematical technique that groups together statements (in this study the series of 11attitude statements) into factors on the basis that statements within a factor are highly correlated i.e. answered in a similar way. The factors enable us to understand the structure amongst a larger group of statements and to simplify further analysis and interpretation. The factors are such that at a respondent level we can calculate a score for each factor and these scores can, for example, be used to group respondents with similar attitudes using cluster analysis (see next slide). Mathematically we start by using Principal Component Analysis to simplify the data into a series of independent components which explain as much of the variation of the data as possible by linear combinations of the statements put in. We determine the number of “real” factors within the data by looking at the magnitudes of a mathematical parameter known as Eigenvalues which are associated with these successive principal components. At this stage, individual statements may be associated with more than one principal component (factor). In order to simplify the interpretation we apply a further mathematical technique known as factor rotation (Varimax usually) to these principal components. This rotation maintains the level of variance explained and the independence of the factors to create factors that are reasonably well correlated with the individual statements and don’t have one big ‘positivity’ factor that masks the more interesting aspects of the data. The factors then are, loosely, groupings of correlated statements.

32. 32 Appendix – Segmentation method (2 of 2) 2) Cluster analysis In contrast to factor analysis which groups together attitudinal statements, cluster analysis is a technique that groups together survey respondents who have similar profiles of attitudinal statements. To carry out the cluster analysis we run it in three stages using K-means cluster analysis to produce well defined clusters that are not unhelpfully small or influenced by outliers. The first run identifies a number of potential “seed” points for the initial centres of the clusters by doing a cluster analysis with a large number of clusters and using the larger of the resultant clusters as seeds for the second stage. The second stage excludes outliers and clusters all remaining respondents into groups. The third stage assigns the outliers to the groups achieved in the second run. In this way the outliers will be in the cluster to which they have most in common but they will not have been allowed to influence or bias the creation of the cluster. We repeat this process for a number of different cluster “solutions” and, although we monitor statistics such as the r-squared value to ensure that the clusters explain a good proportion of the variation within the data, the final choice of number of clusters is determined by the researchers looking at the interpretation of the clusters created against the factors used in the analysis and often against other data from the survey (in the case of this study the cluster solutions were looked at against data regarding arts participation and demographic details).
