Full-time Homeworkers are almost twice as likely as the average adult to hail from households with income of $150,000 or higher (195 index). Westerners are more likely (116 index) than Americans living in the other three census regions to work from home. Media access affects media behavior, so it's not surprising that the work from home set sport unique viewing, reading, and listening pro-files. While MRI data do not qualify or quantify the connection between using specific media while actually working from home, analysis of data do demonstrate that certain magazine types, TV programs, and radio formats are more likely to be used by people who work from home. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Television: While male Homeworkers are not any more likely than total adults to multi-task work and TV viewing
during the day, women Homeworkers seem to sneak some peeks at TV daytime dayparts when it comes to soaps, early morning programs, and daytime talk shows.
Radio: Male Homeworkers have a greater likelihood than men working outside the home for listening to certain radio formats, the top three being News/Talk, All Talk, and Classic Rock. Magazines: Among certain magazine types, Homeworkers also show a greater likelihood than those who work outside the home for readership. Men-at-home are more likely to read Airline and Boating magazines, and Airline and Parenthood books rank highest among women working from home. |

MRI Mourns the Loss of Renata RangesThis spring the Mediamark family lost a dear friend and a long time employee. Renata Ranges, our colleague and friend for more than 13 years, passed away after a long illness. Although her official duties included human resources, office management and oversight of MRI's facilities, Renata's contributions went far beyond her job description. She was a mentor, a great listener, and a source of sound and simple wisdom. She generously shared her time and insights with anyone who needed a kind word, or even an occasional kick in the rear. Her ethics, intelligence, common sense, humor, and sense of caring made the world a better place for all who knew her. |
