Attendees will be first to learn about the latest recommendations for asking international research respondents the “age” question to improve data quality
— Judith Passingham, chair of ESOMAR’s Professional Standards Committee
AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS, August 31, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — ESOMAR, the global community for data, research and insights, has announced that it will release new demographic best practice recommendations at ESOMAR Congress 2022, being held in Toronto 18-21 September 2022. The new recommendation encompasses the best way to ask the age question, and represents evidence-based best practices based on the work of an expert project team comprised of representatives from around the globe. This new way of asking the age question is expected to lead to better data consistency and accuracy across borders, plus heightened participant privacy and satisfaction.
“With growing levels of international market research, this new best practice surrounding a core research question will help insights professionals everywhere to improve research standards and gain better comparability from one market to another,” says Judith Passingham, chair of ESOMAR’s Professional Standards Committee who leads this project alongside Jon Puleston of Kantar, who is a member of the Standards Committee. “We are excited to unveil our findings and provide the insights community with new recommendations at ESOMAR Congress this year.”
The new recommendation proposal was sent for review to experts at global companies such as the BBC, Coca-Cola, Colgate Palmolive, Diageo, Etisalat, Google, Microsoft, Mondalez China, Nissan, P&G and Unilever for comment and possible implementation. Many will be applying or trialing the recommendation in their international work. Next up, the project team will address the critical gender and working status questions, with income and education level measures also on the list. The recommendations will be available to download from ESOMAR’s website after the presentation.
