NEW YORKโ€”September 28, 2012โ€” Nielsen (NYSE: NLSN), a leading global provider of information and insights into what consumers buy and watch, and the Coalition for Innovative Media Measurement (CIMM), today announced the formation of an Innovation Committee designed to collaborate on Nielsenโ€™s mobile Television Audience Measurement initiative (mTAM). Nielsen and CIMM will further develop and test different approaches to television audience measurement using both passive and active applications on mobile phones, tablets, and through an online website, mirroring how individuals use technology throughout the day. This initiative will transform self-reported viewing by taking full advantage of technology consumers use day-to-day as well as improve measurement among younger adults. The initial focus will be on local media markets.

Atualmente, a Nielsen estรก testando um aplicativo para smartphones/tablets para registrar informaรงรตes sobre a audiรชncia televisiva. Uma versรฃo mais tradicional do site on-line que espelha o aplicativo tambรฉm estรก disponรญvel. Os vรกrios pontos de acesso refletem as mudanรงas nas formas de interaรงรฃo do pรบblico com a tecnologia e criam mais oportunidades para alcanรงar os espectadores onde eles consomem o conteรบdo.

"A abordagem de vรกrios pontos de acesso permite que as pessoas insiram informaรงรตes ao longo do dia em qualquer tipo de dispositivo que escolherem ou que esteja prontamente ร  mรฃo no momento", disse Michael Link, metodologista-chefe da Nielsen, que estรก supervisionando essa รกrea de pesquisa. "Dessa forma, aumentamos o nรบmero de pessoas que podem participar e esperamos melhorar a conformidade para garantir que estamos capturando todas as suas visualizaรงรตes."

"A CIMM tem o prazer de colaborar com a iniciativa mTAM da Nielsen para testar smartphones e tablets como dispositivos de coleta de dados passivos e ativos, com o objetivo de melhorar continuamente a mediรงรฃo da exibiรงรฃo de TV nos mercados locais", disse Jane Clarke, diretora administrativa da CIMM.

A CIMM e a Nielsen se concentrarรฃo inicialmente em testes de prova de conceito (POC) em estรกgio inicial para avaliar a utilidade de soluรงรตes multiplataforma. Elas colaborarรฃo ainda mais na direรงรฃo futura da iniciativa mTAM, bem como em outros POCs relevantes que estรฃo sendo realizados, e a CIMM fornecerรก informaรงรตes valiosas sobre a direรงรฃo futura do mTAM, garantindo que os serviรงos de mediรงรฃo da Nielsen forneรงam resultados robustos e atendam ร s necessidades em evoluรงรฃo do mercado de televisรฃo.

Audrey Steele, SVP Sales Research & Marketing at Fox Broadcasting Company, a CIMM Member company, said, โ€œAccurately measuring and monetizing audiences is increasingly critical as viewer behavior becomes more complex and fragmented. This is of particular concern in the local markets, where relatively small sample sizes can yield inconsistent results. CIMM and Nielsenโ€™s push to lever the power of mobile technology to enable more representative audience measurement is a welcome step in the right direction.โ€
