title: Survey on Achievements in School for Hearing Impaired Pupils - Questionaire

description: Skådalen competence center (Statped) received in 2008 a commission by the Directorate of Education to determine how hearing impaired children are doing in school. Statistics Norway (SSB) was commissioned to collect birth and social security number of the current student group from hearing centers. The proejct also included the connection of character data and selected background information from registers and sending out questionnaires to parents and contact teachers for primary school students. It was decided to conduct a census of children and young people born between 1.1.1989-31.12.2002, diagnosed with hearing impairment (simplex or duplex) or who were deaf. In addition, the children and young people should have been recommended a hearing aid technology (hearing aid or cochlear implant) and/or use sign language. This group is fully registered with hearing centers in Norway. For those who were born between 1.1.1989-31.12.1993, it was decided to only implement a register-based character collection (registry group). For the second group, born 1.1.1994-31.12 2002 should conduct a questionnaire survey combined with register data (survey group).

title: Health, Environment and Lifestyle Among Youth in Sogn og Fjordane, 2012

description: The purpose of this project was to obtain data that could be used to promote health, well-being, social and environmental conditions, to prevent mental and somatic illness, injury or suffering, and to contribute to the equalization of social health inequalities. The project addresses in particular two important challenges for which more research is needed. First, that more and more young people are obese and overweight. In addition, too many Norwegian young people do not complete upper secondary school and thus are more exposed to health problems as adults. The main objective was to investigate self-reported health and quality of life as well as factors that can influence this. The study was carried out as a collaboration between Sogn og Fjordane County Municipality, the municipalities of upper secondary schools in Sogn og Fjordane, Sogn og Fjordane University College, Helse Førde and the University of Bergen.

In addition, the survey maps the interviewees' experience with discrimination and contact with immigrants. The survey has been conducted annually since 2005, with the exception of 2007 and 2011. The questionnaire has been modified slightly from year to year because some questions have been removed and others added. Some question formulations are changed from one year to the next. This is a merged file of all these surveys. There are fewer variables in "The Integration Barometer 2005-2012" than in "The Integration Barometer 2005-2010". It is still possible to order a file with the 2005-2010 suveys. http://www.nsd.uib.no/nsd/english/order.html

title: Public Libraries - Arenas for Citizenship: An Investigation of the Public Library as a Meeting Place in a Digital and Multicultural Context, 2006-2011

description: The project aims at studying the public libraries' potential of functioning as public spaces and meeting places with a capacity of fostering social capital in multicultural urban communities. Citizenship implies a feeling of community with fellow-citizensand with the polity in question. Community, in turn, is dependent upon a minimum degree of shared identity. These shared values are an integrated part of social capital. In today's multicultural and digital society, creating common arenas capable of fostering community is not a trivial task. As both a public space and a centre of knowledge and culture, the public library has a potential for being a vital part of a local community. It is used by most segments of society and it is a junction where different cultures as well as different spheres of life meet - education, leisure and entertainment, work and business. 

This research project is aiming towards an understanding of the role of the public library in the making of social capital. The project aims at studying: 
1. The extent of and ways the library is taken into use as a meeting place, e.g. as an arena for undistorted communication in the Habermasian sense, as a social meeting place preventing social isolation and as a meeting place promoting local identity, history and culture. 
2. Perceptions regarding the librarys potential in generating social capital. 
3. The library's role as a low-intensive meeting place. 
4. The interplay between digital and physical arenas, and 
5. Community differences. Barriers to community participation and citizenship and, thus, the character of the meeting places needed, may vary between communities/urban spaces, e.g. according to the proportion of ethnic minorities, education, age-distribution, employment, local history and local traditions etc. 

The study aims at generating knowledge about such variations and the research will therefore be undertaken in three different communities in Oslo varying along such dimensions and in Tromsø.

title: Media Systems, News Content and Public Perception of Political Reality - Phone Survey Norway & USA, 2009

description: Public opinion constitutes one of the cornerstones of democracy. Citizens are assumed to hold preferences for particular polices, know where parties and candidates for office are located on the relevant policy dimensions, and cast their votes accordingly. In other words: Democracy functions best when its citizens are politically informed. In order to express attitudes and act according to their self-interest, citizens need relevant and up to date information about current affairs. In many respects, political relevant information is more widely available now than at any time in history. However, several scholars have questioned the quality and the form of information provided by the news media. A central hypothesis in this project is that media systems matter for the information available to the public. How commercial and public broadcasting is organised within a country, or the relative importance of newspapers to television, are all factors that can influence the information provided by the news media, and thus the potential effect on the public. The overall purpose of this project is to study the information given by the news media to the public, and how this information influences public's knowledge and perception of political reality. The data set consists of a telephone survey on media use, public peceptions and political knowledge among residents in Norway and the U.S.

The content analysis studies between and within country variations in news content, including important factors such as hard versus soft news, thematic versus episodic news frames, domestic versus international focus, use of actors and sources as well as main arguments presented on a few selected topics.
