The following key terms are used throughout the AusPlay survey (AusPlay) reporting and other collateral, and a definition

Adult

For the purposes of AusPlay an adult is a person aged 15 and over. For the landline sample, an adult was randomly selecte

this person was not prepared to take part in the survey. For the mobile sample the phone owner was interviewed.

Child

For the purposes of AusPlay a child is a person aged 0-14. The responding adult aged 18 and over was asked whether he/s

method; i.e. the child aged 0-14 who had had the most recent birthday would be selected. Questions on the selected child
sport or physical activity outside of school hours were then asked of the responding adult.

Duration
For each activity done within the last 12 months, all players were asked how long the most recent session had lasted. Ther
maximum limits set. An average duration was calculated for each person from the durations they gave for their different a
an indicative session duration for reporting durations per person.

Frequency
For each activity done within the last 12 months, all adult and child players were asked how many times, in total, they had
or training). The frequencies given by each person for each of their activities were summed for reporting the total frequen
related or non-sport-related activities per person.

Relative margin of error (RMOE)


The AusPlay results are based on a sample and are therefore subject to sample error. Sample error is measured by the sta
error. Knowledge of the standard error, or the margin of error, enables the 95% confidence intervals to be constructed aro
enables statistical significance testing to be carried out.

Table name: Key terms and definitions

The 95% confidence interval for a survey result is calculated as the survey result plus or minus 1.96x the standard error. Fo
100,000 has a standard error of 10,000 then the 95% confidence interval is 100,000 +/- 1.96x10,000 = 100,000 +/- 19,600

The amount 1.96 x the standard error is called the margin of error. Thus knowledge of the margin of error is sufficient to c
intervals. For this reason the AusPlay sampling error values are presented as margin of error values not standard error valu
be calculated by dividing the margin of error values by 1.96.
Another way of summarising the sample error is to calculate the relative margin of error which is the margin of error divid
expressed as a percentage.

For each activity recorded, adults were asked whether they had played it ‘through an organisation – like a club or a gym; o

AusPlay captures a wide variety of activities (see ‘Participation by adults’ and ‘Participation by children’) and a distinction i
between sport-related activities and non-sport-related physical activities.
Sport-related activities include, for example, team sports (basketball, football, Australian football, cricket, netball, etc.), at
jogging), swimming, cycling, golf, etc. These are typically activities related to National Sporting Organisations (NSOs), altho
may not play the activity through an affiliation with the NSO.

Non-sport-related physical activity


AusPlay captures a wide variety of activities (see ‘Participation by adults’ and ‘Participation by children’) and a distinction i
between sport-related activities and non-sport related physical activities.
Non-sport-related physical activities include, for example, gym/fitness activities, bushwalking, recreational (non-sport) da
activities not related to National Sporting Organisations (NSOs).
