Audience Satisfaction Research Articles

International medical education between Hawaii and Thailand over Internet2.

International medical education sessions have been successfully conducted by videoconferencing using Internet2. The sessions were between two tertiary care medical centres, in Honolulu and Bangkok. However, video quality was lower than for similar sessions using ISDN and audience satisfaction was less. The main reasons for the lower quality were network congestion and bandwidth allocation by the videoconferencing equipment. Software to ensure quality of service is available, but is not easy to implement. There were also network security problems and the costs were high. Our international videoconferences averaged 40-50 hours per year, an activity level at which connection costs were lower for ISDN than for Internet2. It appears that Internet2 videoconferencing for medical education is best reserved for academic institutions that have other high-bandwidth network requirements.

A profile of cable subscribership: The role of audience satisfaction variables

While rate deregulation stemming from the 1984 Cable Act has prompted congressional charges of price gouging and sloppy service, little is known about its impact on customer perceptions of cable prices, quality, and customer service. This paper assesses customer satisfaction with cable service in light of recent price increases using data from a community-based census of subscribers. Results suggest that nearly half of all subscribers were at least satisfied with their cable service, with paid subscribers indicating the highest level of satisfaction. The most popular reason for subscribing was to receive more channels, while program duplication was the most prominent source of concern.

The dynamics of a music education facility design team—The role of acoustical consultant

The design of facilities for music performance, rehearsal, and education is a complex task. Some of the major aspects of realizing such facilities include: Teaming, marketing, negotiating contracts, establishing criteria, client/user interface, technical acoustical analysis and design, aesthetics, consulting, compromise, budgeting, construction/installation, contractor interface, acoustical measurements, acceptance, and evaluation of user and audience satisfaction. This paper will discuss the prominent role of the acoustical consultant in the process of designing facilities for music performance, rehearsal, and education.

Correction of uncomplicated cases of transposition of the great arteries.

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Today, digital television enables consumers to record and watch live television via an array of hand-held devices. To help increase the effectiveness of programming and advertising in this digital age, the authors studied the attitudes and behavior of viewers during the course of a series. The findings revealed Audience Satisfaction as a dynamic construct that is predicted by Expectations, Program Performance, and, to a very limited extent, Connectedness over time. The implications suggest that television producers, directors, and advertisers could reap added value by adjusting content on the basis of between season and within season program market research and consequential insight.
