The annual survey results show the statistical data and development trends of Internet usage.

The survey for the year 2022 was conducted in December 2022. 1,506 qualified Macao residents aged 6-84 were successfully interviewed. The sampling error is ±2.58% at the confidence level of 95%. The response rate (AAPORRR3) is 30% and the cooperation rate (AAPOR-CR3) is 67%. All survey results in this report are weighted by gender and age according to the officially released demographic data, in order to reduce sampling errors and increase the representativeness of the sample.
