Description: This request is for

complement and supplement the
information collected in the SPPA. The
SPPA is the field’s premiere repeated
cross-sectional survey of individual
attendance and involvement in arts and
cultural activity, and is conducted
approximately every five years. The
AABS questionnaires are much shorter
than the SPPA, consisting of 12 to 14
questions that will be used to track arts
participation over time. As with the
SPPA, the AABS data will be circulated
to interested researchers and will be the
basis for a range of NEA reports and
independent research publications.
Reports on these data will be made
publicly available on the NEA’s Web
site. The AABS will provide annual
primary knowledge on the extent and
nature of participation in the arts in the
United States. These data will also be
used by the NEA as a contextual
measure for one of the strategic goals
identified in its FY 2014–FY 2018
strategic plan.
