Culture is broadly defined, as the survey covers habits within the topics of culture, media and recreational activities, e.g. concerts, performing arts, cinema, literature, exercise, digital games and hobbies. The survey has been carried out regularly since 1964. Statistics Denmark has carried out the survey from 2018-2023 and in 2024-, while previous surveys have been carried out by the Ministry of Culture. The survey has been carried out with a new questionnaire since the first quarter of 2024, and is therefore not directly comparable with previous versions., Statistical presentation, The Cultural Habits Survey is an interview based quarterly survey among a random sample of Danish residents 16 years or older, which documents the consumption of cultural and recreational activities. The consumption of these activities may occur both in Denmark and abroad. The cultural consumption is grouped in various statistics by i.a. age, gender, education and degree of urbanisation. The current Cultural Habits Survey is ongoing and was first collected in the first quarter of 2024. The survey is communicated in Danish language press releases and in StatBank Denmark., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The Cultural Habits Survey is an interview based quarterly survey among a random sample. The survey is carried out by both computer-assisted web interviews (CAWI) and computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI). Approximately 4,800 responses are collected each quarter. The questionnaire is divided into a general part answered by all participants and four sub-parts, each answered by roughly a fourth of the respondents surveyed via CAWI. Using demographic information from Statistics Denmark's register of the Danish population, the respondents are weighted to compensate for non-response. Data is inspected for errors. A yearly dataset is compiled by the combination of the data for each quarter of the year., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The Cultural Habits Survey is carried out and developed in close cooperation with the Ministry of Culture and is the ninth in the series of the cultural habits of Danish residents carried out since 1964. The current survey accommodates a series of user needs, among which are more frequent statistics, the possibility for investigating geographic variation and the surveying of a broader definition of culture. The user needs have been identified through a thorough assessment of the Cultural Habits Survey 2018-2023. The assessment comprised the Ministry of Culture, researchers and users from public institutions., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The Cultural Habits Survey is based on approximately 4,800 responses per quarter, which is a robust amount of data, contributing to lessening the sampling error. The error of the estimates are further reduced by the use of a mixed mode of data collection and multiple attempts at contacting each respondent. The error is however significantly greater for those questions which are part of the four sub-parts as these are each based on an amount of data roughly one fourth the size of the total amount., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published two months after the end of the reference period. The statistics are published without delay compared to scheduled publishing times., The statistic on membership for youth and outdoor activities organisations is published yearly in June, with data for the preceding year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The survey has been carried out since 1964, but is in its current form only comparable with earlier versions to a limited degree. This is partly due to societal and technological changes and partly due to changes in the needs of users which has resulted in major revisions of the questionnaire in 2018 and 2024. The questionnaire is developed according to UN guidelines and is therefore partly comparable to statistics from other countries, among these the Nordic countries and EU countries., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in a , Danish press release, .

Concepts from national accounts, such as production and gross value added (GVA), are linked to the classifications of cultural and creative industries. The aim is to reflect not only the direct activities within the cultural and creative industries but also the indirect activities taking place in other sectors that support them., Statistical presentation, The statistics convert activity in the cultural and creative industries at the most detailed level of the Danish Industrial Classification 2007 into the national accounts' industry classification and national accounting concepts such as production and gross value added. This alignment with the national accounts' industry groupings enables both an input-output model calculation of indirect effects in other industries supporting cultural and creative production, and a comparison of key figures with those for other parts of the Danish economy. The results are categorized by cultural subjects and creative industries., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The statistics link the production in selected 6-digit activity codes from the Danish Industrial Classification 2007, which cover cultural and creative industries, to the production in the 117-industry classification of the national accounts. This enables the use of an input-output model to calculate the indirect effects in other industries. The indirect effects in sectors other than the cultural and creative industries are calculated by integrating the cultural and creative production into an input-output model. The calculations are based on ESA2010 and the supply and use matrices of the national accounts, which underpin the official national account figures., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The cultural industry has significant non-market activity, as well as considerable direct and indirect government support and contributions from private foundations.

The input-output table and model assumptions result in lower precision compared to directly observed data., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published approximately three months after the release of a new reference year for the input-output tables and the final national accounts, which usually occurs at the end of June, i.e., approximately 20 months after the end of the reference year.

The statistics were first created in the aftermath of the financial crisis in collaboration with Danmarks Nationalbank (the Danish Central Bank) and were intended, among other things, to analyze families' resilience to economic shocks.

Data on pension wealth are also used for the macro economic Model ADAM., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The quality of the financial data is high since most of the data is validated by the tax authorities. There is much larger uncertainty on the imputed market value of owned property, cars, unquoted stocks and the value of lifetime pensions. Data on assets that can not be linked to persons is not included. Data Wealth held abroad by Danes is likely lacking as well.

The examples are chosen in a way that most types of relations in ADAM are described. It is a good place to search for inspiration when making calculations and analyses with the model. , The examples can be used for scenario- or multiplier analysis, but are are typically relatively simple.
