Winter 2006 Diary Revisions

Personal Race/Ethnicity
To support the implementation of Personal Race/Ethnicity, effective Winter 2006, personal race and ethnicity questions have been added to monolingual (English) diaries; and personal race, ethnicity, and language questions have been added to bilingual (English-Spanish) diaries. Hispanics in all radio markets will receive bilingual diaries.

Greater Placement Control
To help ensure greater control of diary placement, effective Winter 2006, the county, state and zip code to which diaries are mailed will be used to place survey diaries in the in-tab sample; county, state and zip code information will no longer be solicited in the diary.
