description: Undersøgelsen blev introduceret som ''et led i den række af undersøgelser af befolkningens levevilkår, som gennemføres af Socialforskningsinstituttet med det formål at belyse forskellene i levevilkår bl.a. mellem folk i byerne og folk på landet - ikke kun med hensyn til arbejde og indkomst, men også boligforhold, uddannelse, fritidsmuligheder, sundhedsforhold og forurening, idet det er nødvendigt at skaffe bedre oplysninger om alle disse forhold for at vurdere udviklingen i forskellige befolkningsgruppers levevilkår''.     #  Primært er undersøgelsen imidlertid en metodeundersøgelse, idet den er den sidste af tre undersøgelser, der strengt taget kun havde det formål at vurdere forskellige måder at udvælge interviewpersoner på.     #  Udvælgelse ved ''tvungen vandring'' er lidt odiøs, fordi det er meget vanskeligt at udarbejde en statistisk model, som på tilfredsstillende måde beskriver udvalgsmetoden. På den anden side har metoden været anvendt i vid udstrækning, såvel i Danmark som i udlandet. Faktisk blev den første undersøgelse af levevilkår i Norge i begyndelsen af 1890''erne gennemført ved interviewing efter tvungen vandring.     #  Ideen bag metoden er at søge at sprede interviewene over et distrikt på en sådan måde, at interviewerne ikke har indflydelse på stikprøvens sammensætning, selv om primærundersøgeren (typisk private personer og virksomheder, der ikke har adgang til et folkeregister eller CPR) ikke på forhånd har kendskab til interviewpersonernes navne eller adresser
description: The study was introduced as 'one of a number of surveys of the living conditions of the Danish population, surveys which were carried out by the Danish National Institute of Social Research and which were aimed at examining the differences in living conditions between e.g. people in the cities and people in the country - not only as regards employment conditions and income but also as regards housing conditions, education, spare time offers, health conditions and pollution - as it is necessary to obtain better information about all these conditions in order to be able to assess the development of the living conditions of different population groups'.     #  However, the survey is primarily methodological in that it is the last of three surveys the sole aim of which was, strictly speaking, to assess various methods of respondent selection.     #  Selection by 'predetermined walk' is somewhat disreputable because it is very difficult to design a statistical model which may describe the method of selection in a satisfactory way. On the other hand, this kind of method has been used extensively, in Denmark as well as in other countries. In fact, the first survey of living conditions in Norway in the beginning of the 1890s was carried out by means of interviews which were the result of selection according to the method.     #  The idea behind the method is an attempt at spreading the interviews over a district in such a way that the interviewers have no influence on the composition of the sample even though the primary investigator (typically private persons or firms who do not have access to a national register or the Central Population Register) do not in advance know the names or addresses of the respondents
