Methodological note
Methodological aspects
The results are presented for the second edition of the Survey on cultural consumption and practices of Catalonia, which sought to find out about the cultural consumption and practices of the Catalan population in its spare time. The time period for the survey, conducted by the Generalitat de Catalunya's Ministry of Culture in collaboration with Idescat, was the last twelve months counted from the date of the interview (November 19 to December 28, 2006).
When the value is lower than that of the minimum unit to be able to estimate the statistical operation or if it effects statistical confidentiality, the symbol used is "..".
