3 Background and methodology In 2014 The AusIMM conducted a survey of its members and contracted Insightrix Research (Insightrix) to conduct an analysis and build a report of survey results. Goals of the analysis included: comparing 2014 survey results with those from previous years to identify trends. analysing results by various demographic variables to highlight similarities and differences. The AusIMM provided Insightrix with the 2014 survey data in Excel which Insightrix converted into SPSS format in order for cross-tabulations to be conducted. Further, results from previous reports were provided to Insightrix so that they could compare and track survey results through time. In addition, because question base sizes (those answering each question) could not be tracked for all data they are not included in the analysis.
