Household Internet Use Survey, 2000 [Canada]

The Household Internet Use Survey (HIUS) was conducted a fourth time in January 2001 for Science Innovation and Electronic Information Division at Statistics Canada by Special Surveys Division of Statistics Canada. The annual HIUS collects detailed data on the Internet activities of Canadian households. It reports on Canadians using the Internet and measures the ext ent of their use, location of use, frequency of use and their reasons for using or not using the Internet. In 1999, data on electronic commerce from home was provided. In 2000, users can study the growth of e-commerce by tracking orders, purchases or use of Internet that influence acquisition of products or services. The 2000 HIUS changed its reporting period to cover the full 2000 calendar year. The Household Internet Use Survey (HIUS) was conducted in October 1997, October 1998, November 1999 and by Statistics Canada. The 2000 survey (conducted January 2001) examined Canadian households' access to the home, in the workplace and in a number of other locations. The resulting data and analysis sheds light on relationships between usage and location of use, household income, as well as other demographic factors.家庭互联网使用调查（Household Internet Use Survey, HIUS）由加拿大统计局专项调查部受该局科学创新与电子信息局委托，于2001年1月完成第四次调研。作为年度固定调查项目，HIUS聚焦加拿大家庭的互联网使用行为，采集多维度详细数据：涵盖使用互联网的加拿大民众覆盖范围、使用规模、使用场景、使用频次，以及使用或不使用互联网的动因。1999年的调查首次纳入居家电子商务相关数据；2000年版调查则支持通过追踪影响产品或服务获取的订单、采购行为及互联网使用情况，分析电子商务的发展态势。此外，2000年版HIUS调整了报告周期，覆盖完整的2000日历年度。此前，加拿大统计局已于1997年10月、1998年10月及1999年11月先后开展过三次家庭互联网使用调查。本次2000年版调查（于2001年1月开展）针对加拿大家庭在居家、职场及其他多个场所的互联网接入与使用情况展开调研，最终生成的调查数据与分析结果，可清晰揭示互联网使用行为与使用场景、家庭收入及其他人口统计因素之间的关联。
