    As the TV Universe Turns: Latest Findings & Implications From DASH

    With 5% of US households now not owning a TV set, the Advertising Research Foundation is issuing a call for a gradual move away from “TV Households” as the basis of TV measurement to “TV Accessible Households” to account for shifts in viewing dynamics driven by broadband access and mobile devices. That finding is based on the latest analysis of their comprehensive TV universe study, DASH, an annual survey of more than 10,000 US households balanced for national representation. In this exclusive presentation, the ARF details how TV, device and digital media usage is changing and what the ramifications are for TV measurement moving forward.
