I. Abstract
The U.S. Census Bureau, in
collaboration with a primary contractor
and 14 subcontractors, created hundreds
of advertisements in 28 different
languages as part of the 2010 Census
Integrated Communications Campaign.
This effort was part of the Census
Bureau’s integrated approach to
communications activities for the 2010
Census, combining advertising,
partnerships, public relations, Census in
Schools, Road Tour, and digital media
with the Census Bureau’s internal
operations.
The Census 2010 Publicity Office
(C2PO) conducted a series of qualitative,
quantitative, attitudinal, and behavioral
research initiatives to serve as a
foundation for the 2010 Census
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Integrated Communications Program.
Research results informed and validated
marketing decisions throughout the
entire campaign. C2PO researched all
elements of the campaign across
audiences to ensure that the messaging
resonated with the targeted
communities.
The Census Barriers, Attitudes, and
Motivators Survey (CBAMS), formerly
known as the Census Participation
Survey, was a cornerstone research
effort for developing messages that
would resonate and motivate
participation. CBAMS included over
4,000 in-depth interviews: about 3,000
by phone and another 1,000 in person
to ensure coverage in areas that were
linguistically, culturally or
geographically hard-to-reach as well as
areas without phone service (one of the
‘‘hard-to-count’’ factors). The CBAMS
sample was probabilistic so that it
would be representative of the nation,
with oversamples in hard-to-count
populations; data collection for CBAMS
occurred in July and August 2008. This
survey measured previous Census
participation, attitudes towards the
Census, knowledge of the purpose of the
Census, potential motivators and
barriers to Census participation,
reactions to potential messages, media
consumption, and demographic
information.
Analysis of CBAMS data enhanced
the cluster segmentation by providing
much needed, up-to-date insight into
how the target audiences feel about the
Census, and why they may or may not
participate, to help us develop
appropriate messages to address these
mindsets. CBAMS revealed five distinct
mindsets among the population that
varied in their knowledge of and
attitudes toward the Census: Leading
Edge, Head Nodders, Insulated,
Unacquainted, and Cynical Fifth. While
there are different cultural contexts that
emerged, these mindsets exist
throughout the population, regardless of
race or ethnicity.
CBAMS II will first replicate, to the
extent practicable, the first CBAMS to
determine the extent to which mindsets
about the Census have changed over
time. However, CBAMS II will also be
expanded to investigate why nonresponders did not mail back their
Census forms and to collect additional
information to gain further insights into
particular mindsets, such as the Cynical
