New electronic products are constantly being developed, which over time become commonplace in Danish homes. The products in the statistics are replaced on an ongoing basis, so that new ones are included, while others are removed as they have become commonplace, e.g. smart TV. The survey has been compiled since 1990 and the statistics have been comparable ever since. Before 2000, the surveys were conducted in October. Since 2001, data are collected in April., Statistical presentation, These statistics are an annual survey of how many percent of Danish families who possess different types of electronics, e.g. robot vacuum cleaners, smart TV and smart phones etc. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, For the time being the sample of an omnibus survey consists of 1,500 persons, drawn from a population of persons aged 16-74 residing in Denmark., As it is not possible to interview all 1,500 persons, each completed interview is given a personal weight, which corrects the effects of non-sampling and non-response (including no telephone) and ensures that the results cover the whole population in the sample. , However, the questions on home appliances do not concern the individual person, but the family he/she is living with. For that reason the answers are given a family weight, which ensures that the families with different numbers of persons aged 16 years or over are represented in the sample with varying probability. A family is defined as one or several persons between 16 and 74 years who live in the same accommodation and are related (includes also cohabiting couples) and their children, though there can only be one married or cohabiting couple in the family. The sum of the family weight for all completed interviews, gives the number of families in Denmark that have persons aged between 16 and 74 years., In the frame of data validation the check of the data correctness is conducted by checking the consistency of the responses by every single respondent, comparison of the results with the results of the previous year, as well as comparison of the non-response rate are also undertaken., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The press use the information to inform about developments in home appliances., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, As the results are based on a sample survey, they are subject to a certain degree of statistical uncertainty. This depends on both the size of the sample and the number of completed interviews, which vary from survey to survey. With a sample of approximately 1,500 persons and a response rate of about 65 pct., which has normally been achieved in the last few years, the statistical uncertainty is in 95 pct. of the cases estimated to range between +/- 3 percentage points., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, There is no difference between planned and actual release time., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The number and nature of the electronic products, that are included in the studies are replaced along the way, so that new products that - especially as a result of technological development - become interesting are added. Products that have become common property in almost every family are discontinued. Therefore comparison over longer periods some times could be difficult., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Home appliances, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity
