According to the survey data of 2016 used for research, we have held face-to-face questionnaire twice a year for 6394 households in the United States. We investigated household income, favorite brands, TV programs, movies, magazines, etc. and also examined the brands of smartphones and tablets that they have.

Researchers analyzed the data using machine learning algorithms and examined the cultural differences between different groups such as wealthy and poor, American and black, American and women in American society I investigated.
