2 PLEASE NOTE Changes to National Visitor Survey Methodology Tourism Research Australia s (TRA) National Visitor Survey (NVS) commenced in Between 1998 and 2013, all interviews were undertaken with respondents on residential fixed-line telephones using Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI). The mobile phone only population in Australia has increased substantially in recent years, particularly for younger age groups. Latest estimates indicate 30% of those aged years and 47% of those aged years are mobile only. Given this, to provide better coverage of the Australian population, TRA has introduced mobile phone interviewing as of 2 January For 2014, 50% of the NVS sample will be interviewed on fixed-lines, and 50% on mobile phones. Therefore year ending () September 2014 NVS data in this publication is based on one quarter of fixed-line only interviews (October - December 2013), and three quarters of both fixed-line and mobile phone interviews (January September 2014). Analysis by TRA shows people interviewed on mobile phones are different to people interviewed on landlines in terms of their demographic profile and travel behaviour. Most notably, people interviewed on mobile phones are more likely to be younger and to take more trips. The inclusion of mobile phone interviewing has improved visitation estimates by bringing the sample more in line with the Australian population. However, the change in methodology means results from March 2014 and onwards are not directly comparable to results from previous years. Consequently, the domestic results are reported for September 2014 only, without making any comparisons to results from previous years.
