Esplorpropono

Mi skribis hodiaŭ al vicprezidantino de mia firmao (ni estas enketistoj):

Hi Sue,

In my capacity as an active proponent of Esperanto (the International Language) I am interested in exploring whether it might be feasible to conduct a formal research study concerning awareness of, attitudes towards, and potential interest in Esperanto, utilizing both quantitative and qualitative approaches.

My ideal study would involve a fairly high-n random-sample phone survey in several parts of the country,

New York/Massachusetts
Puget Sound/Western Washington
California (Northern/Southern)
Texas/Louisiana
Wisconsin/Minesota
Colorado/Wyoming
Alabama/Tennessee

as well as smaller parallel mail and web surveys, for example, aimed at discovering, especially,

General attitudes on language and languages
Awareness of Esperanto
Attitudes towards Esperanto
Openness to/Interest in various sales pitches for Esperanto
Membership in Focus Group categories

and then Focus Groups and/or Delphi Groups focussing mainly on

Awareness of Esperanto
Attitudes towards Esperanto
Openness to/Interest in various sales pitches for Esperanto

and targeting specifically

Budget-conscious travelers
Homeschooling parents
Language teachers

(and possibly other groups I have not identified yet; some might only be identified through analysis of the quantitative data).

I would want the n on the random part to be large enough that we would have good stats on blacks, Hispanics, and non-native English speakers.

So my initial question to you is, what sort of budget would we need to be looking at to do something like this?

I may share this query and your response with colleagues in the Esperanto movement, unless you designate particular information as my-eyes-only or something.

Yours,
Leland in Centel

Miaj blogoj

La Harublogo estas mia "ekstermovada" Esperantlingva blogo. Por la movadaj ne tro malneŭtralaj temoj mi afiŝas en mia blogo ĉe la tttejo de ELNA.

Miaj aliaj blogoj estas CCCC, kiu specife limiĝas al Kristnaskaj kantoj, plejparte en la angla, kaj Himnoj kaj Himnologio.
