2. About the study StudyIKEA Self Home Study: Sweden Target groupFull nationally representative sample 16+ Base numberOriginal questions (n=1023); Extra questions (n=999) Margin of error+/-1.4%-3.2% Conducted01.06.06-12.07.06 (extra questions on separate waves) TELEPHONE INTERVIEWS –Global telephone omnibus interviews are conducted via Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) networks, which ensures consistent execution of the questionnaire and efficient sample management. The interview itself consists of non- competing client-specific questions and a shared set of standard demographics. TABULATION/GRAPHICS: –The Global Omnibus survey results are tabulated by one standard global demographic banner and one country-specific demographic banner. The standard banner includes gender, age, marital status, child in household, and employment status. –Tabulations are provided in weighted format. Weights are derived individually for each country based upon appropriate demographic variables and information provided by its statistical bureau. –Graphics are made on basis of these tabulations. HOW TO USE THE CROSSTABS: –All the different demographic variables are listed on the top of the page, as a banner. Each row represent a separate demographic variable. –The data is significant tested at 95% probability. When you see a letter in front of a number, it means that this particular number is significantly higher than the row/variable the letter refers to. We have done significant testing of each group (i.e., gender, age, household type, etc.) against total. Each group are separate from one another and female cannot be significant compared to households with children, only compared to male. –“Top2box” means the sum of the two highest scores and “Low2box” means the sum of the two lowest scores.
