Description

The study "Swedish TV supply" is conducted annually since 1998. Since 2012, except for the TV channels SVT1, SVT2, Barnkanalen (the Children Channel), SVT24, Kunskapskanalen (the Knowledge Channel), TV3, TV4, Kanal 5, TV6, Sjuan (Seven), TV8 and the UR program of SVT1 and SVT2, programme of the Swedish Radio (P1, P2, P3, P4 Göteborg, P4 Kristianstad) as well as the play services of some TV channels (SVT play, TV4 play, TV3 play and Kanal 5 play) have been examined. The new name of the study is therefore "Swedish media supply".

The examination of the programs offered on TV is designed to answer five questions: (1) What is the range of supply in the television channels during the program year 2012? (2) What similarities and differences between the television channels' program profiles? (3) What are the programs offered for specific groups: children, youth, minorities and the disabled? (4) How has variety of programmes developed over time? (5) And how is diversity manifested in Swedish television?

The study is based in principle on the information about TV programme from television channels. T

The examination of the programs offered on TV is designed to answer five questions: (1) What is the range of supply in the television channels during the program year 2012? (2) What similarities and differences between the television channels' program profiles? (3) What are the programs offered for specific groups: children, youth, minorities and the disabled? (4) How has variety of programmes developed over time? (5) And how is diversity manifested in Swedish television?

The study is based in principle on the information about TV programme from television channels. The programs are classified using this information and starting from a predefined coding scheme.

The radio supply has been coded based on the same principles as the TV supply, even if the classification of the programmes has been adapted to the radio.

The aim of the examination of play services (SVT play, TV4 play, TV3 play and Kanal 5 play) is primarily to compare the supply of the TV channel and its respective play service during the same sample week.

Purpose:
