5 Methodology 5 Methodology Web Survey Conducted By Population* Cogent Research (Cambridge, MA) Representative Sample of U.S. Adult Population (18+) on Age, Socioeconomic Profile, Race/Ethnicity, Region, and Gender Data Collection Period March 28-April 10, 2011 Sample Size (Error) n=1,000 ( for 2011) (+ 4.3 among 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006) *Weighting is a widely accepted statistical technique that is used to ensure that the distribution of the sample reflects that of the population on key demographics. With any data collection method, even when the outgoing sample is balanced to the Census, some populations are more likely than others to respond. NOTES: 1) Statistical significant differences from previous years are noted in the report with up or down arrow keys: / Significant increase/decrease from year indicated. 2) Top 2 refers to the top two answers, 4 or 5 on a 5-point scale; Bottom 2 refers to the bottom two answers, 1 or 2 on a 5-point scale. 3) Rounding: Due to rounding conventions, please note that Top 2 and Bottom 2 may not add to 100% or respective composite score. In addition, statistical comparisons and totals on charts may not add to 100%. The discrepancy should be no more than +/- 1%. INTERNATIONAL FOOD INFORMATION COUNCIL FOUNDATION 5
