Abstract:
Highlights of the studies conducted of the arts public in the South, using both data from a survey of the adult population in 13 states and an analysis of three separate surveys conducted by the Louis Harris and Associates organization which compare South and non-South. In addition, arts participation data is presented from the survey of public participation in the arts covering the entire U.S. population in 1982.
The Arts Public in the South, the latest publication from the Research Division's studies of the American public, was released today.
At present, data from the first National Survey of Public Participation in the Arts is being analyzed; and technical reports are expected from the Survey Research Center of the University of Maryland late in 1984.
The Arts Public in the South is based on two studies. The first was a survey of a sample of the adult population in 13 states in the South under the direction of Richard J. Orend of the Human Resources Research Organization. This was followed up by a detailed analysis by John S. Reed and Peter B. Marsdan of computer data tapes from three national surveys that are housed at the Louis Harris Political Data Library located at the Institute for Research in Social Science at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. The new publication is an analysis and condensation by Denis F. Johnson, an authority on social indicators.
