Demographic Breakdowns Available For DECs

To provide O-O-H buyers with more descriptive audience estimates, The User Friendly Data Committee has released multipliers for various age breakdowns between 5+ and 50+ and for gender that can be applied to adjust DEC's derived from TAB's 1.35-based data as well as data based on the newly adopted 1.38 factor for calculating Daily Effective Circulation (DEC).

(The factors required to convert official 24-hour counts and 15-minute hand counts to DECs can be found in TAB's brochure, Calculating Daily Effective Circulation (DEC) , a copy of which can be obtained by calling TAB).
