title: Local Elections in Norway 2003

description: The data set is derived from Statistic Norway's election survey for municipal and county council elections in 2003, commissioned by Institute of Social Research. The purpose of the survey was to enlighten different sides of the locaø democracy; elections and election campaigns, political interest and participation. 

The survey deals with the following subjects:
-Political interest
-Voting in municipal, county council and national elections.
-Assessment of the significance of elections
-Assessment of the local democracy and local services
-Municipal challenges
-Municipal organisation
-Information about politics
-Voting for persons in municipal elections
-Political participation

The survey is conducted as telephone interview and self-completion forms. The variables from the telephone interview have names beginning with 'spm', whilst variables from the self-completion questionnaire have variable names starting with 'po'.

To obtain knowledge about changes in the electorate, a part of the sample is derived from the gross sample of the Local Election Survey in 1999. This panel consists of people in the ages of 22 - 83 years. For the panel to have cross-sectional features, the real panel had to be supplied with persons from cohorts that recently had become eligible to vote during the four intermittent years. The supplementary sample is often characterized as a "false" panel. Variables that started with 'l' are derived from the Local Election Survey of 1999.

In addition, the Norwegian Board of Health Supervision wanted a list of tasks that were previously performed by specialist health service, but to some extent is pushed over in the municipal nursing and care services. Data is collected through the registration form filled out by staff within the care sector in the municipalities. The form includes information on: 1. Who the receiver is (gender, age, living situation) and their need for help. 2. How much practical assistance and home nursing people who live in public housing or their own home receives. 3. If the help service users receive is sufficient in three different areas: (a) practical assistance and supervision, (b) activation and social measures, and (c) technical assistance. 4. The physical function of the level of service as measured by the receiver "Barthel ADL Index" and the mental level of functioning as measured by undrsøkelsesmetoden "Clinical Dementia Rating".

title: Life course, Ageing and Generation study, 2002/2003, main file

description: There is little knowledge about midlife and old age in Norway. The "Life course, Ageing and Generation study, 2002/2003 (LAG)" is the first big survey on this subject. The survey is longitudinal and the respondents will be followed for at least 20 years in the future. LAG is one of two parts that constitute the international study on lifespan, generation and gender (LOGG). 

LAG is a study of people from 40 years and older. The objective is to understand the diversity of this life phase, and how societal changes affects people in this age group. The survey is focused on four central life areas: Family, work, retirement, life quality, health and care. 

This is the main file, that consists of a sample of respondents from 40 to 79 years. There are two separately documented supplementary files: One consists of the self-completion questionnaire that were sent to the respondents after they have completed the main survey.

title: Omnibus Study No. 3 2003

description: Statistics Norway's Omnibus Surveys are composed of questions about various themes on behalf of several employers. The surveys consist of a fixed set of background variables, as well as the questions that employers pay for. The questions that are determined by employers can almost be considered as fixed as well, since they are used each quarter. These questions concern smoking (on behalf of the Ministry of Health Care Services) and travel over the last three months (on behalf of the Section for Transport, Tourism and ICT at SSB). Other themes that were asked about in this quarter were: - Attitudes towards immigration and immigrants (Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development) - Shopping abroad (Division for External Tradel at SSB) - Live-in partner statistics (Division for Social and Demographic Research at SSB) The Omnibus Survey in August/September (Omnibus nr. 3) 2003 was the first of four Omnibus Surveys in 2003.

title: Survey of Everyday Safety, 2003

description: Section for interview surveys at Statistics Norway (SSB) carried through a self-completion questionnaire in the period from November 2003 to January 2004 about everyday safety. Norwegian Institute for Urban and Regional Research (NIBR) financed the survey. Department of Public Health and General Practice at Norwegian University of Science and Technology collaborated on the project. The aim of the survey was to gather new knowledge about the extent of domestic violence in Norway. By domestic violence we mean violence between people who have been or are in a relationship. The questions are among other things about safety in the local environment, physical and mental health as well as the extent of violent actions in relationships. Those who rapport domestic violence in the beginning of the interview are asked about the last action, both in relation to what actually happened as well as whether the person concerned sought help. Because of the peculiar theme for the survey, SSB considered it as necessary to have an emergency apparatus on alert for respondents who needed to talk about the experience. The employer was responsible for establishing a hotline that was operative in the field period, through the Norwegian Red Cross. The hotline was also mentioned in the survey.

title: Consumer Expenditure Survey 1999

description: Statistisk sentralbyrå har brukt periodiske forbruksundersøkelser som grunnlag for å utarbeide og ajourføre vektgrunnlaget for konsumprisindeksen. Detaljerte oversikter over forbruket i privathusholdninger har også etterhvert utgjort et viktig grunnlag for levekårsstatistikken, og for forskning om inntekt, levekår og f.eks. virkninger av skattesystemets bruk av direkte og indirekte skatter. Materialet er også så detaljert at det gir et interessant grunnlag for kostholdsanalyser. Data kan også benyttes til etterspørselstudier, i økonomiske planleggingsmodeller eller for spesifikasjon av det private forbruket i nasjonalregnskapet. I 1974 gikk SSB over til et system med årlige undersøkelser, med noe mindre utvalg. Fra 1974-1976 er data publisert for 3 år om gangen, og det årlige bruttoutvalget er omlag 1500 hushold, netto utvalg 1100-1200 hushold. Målet var fortsatt å bygge opp en detaljert oversikt over forbruket i private husholdninger, som grunnlag for ajourføring av vektgrunnlaget i konsumprisindeksen. En ønsker også å kartlegge forbruket i forskjellige typer husholdninger. Husholdningene er klassifisert etter kjennemerker som husholdningstype, inntekt, hovedarbeidstakers yrkesstatus og alder, bostedsstrøk, størrelse av total forbruksutgift o.l. Data er organisert i flere deler og inneholder bakgrunnsinformasjon om husholdningen (samles inn gjennom et innledningsintervju som kartlegger husholdsammensetning), detaljert forbruk målt i verdi og mengde (registreres ved dagboksføring, henholdsvis for husholdet og enkeltpersoner), husholdets kjøp av varige konsumgoder (varige kapitalgjenstander, samles inn ved et omfattende avslutningsintervju), forbruk av egenproduserte varer og inntekt og skatt I 1996 er det en del omlegging i filbeskrivelser, slik at variabelnavn ikke direkte samsvarer med tidligere årganger

title: Norwegian Adult Literacy Survey (OECD), 1997.

description: "Norwegian Adult Literacy Survey (OECD), 1997", is a part of an international research project (SIALS - Second international Adult Literacy Survey) on adult literacy carried out in 10 countries. The project aims to map out the level of literacy i the adult population between 16 and 65 years old. In addition to this project, corresponding research was done in 12 countries during the first survey (IALS). The reason for starting up these projects were a bigger focus on adult literacy as an important factor for economic development in industrian countries. IALS and SIALS aims to: - contribute with knowledge on the allocation of adult literacy in each country - focus on adult literacy and their significance for macroeconomics - give a possibility to compare adult literacy in different countries Two surveys were carried out in Norway, one in each language form; bokmål and nynorsk. These were carried out as two separate surveys in two samples of the population, which means that the respondents did not get the opportunity to choose the language form to do the survey. Therefore the surveys measures adult literacy according to a given language form, and not necessarily the language form that the respondent is most comfortable with. This dataset consists of data from the Norwegian Adult Literacy Survey 1997, on Bokmål. The survey is rescaling to be comparable with: Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC).

title: Evaluation of changes in the system for transition allowance for single parents in Norway, 2001

description: The survey "Evaluation of changes in the system for transition allowance for single parents in Norway, 2001" came as a result of a change in the regulations for receiving transitional benefits for single parents as of 01.01.1998. The requirements for receiving benefits were tightened, and civil service had the opportunity to set conditions for allocation, which limited the scope of the assignment. The purpose of this study was to determine how the change affected those who received such support. The survey was conducted under the leadership of Liv Johanne Syltevik, associate professor in the sociology department at the University of Bergen, commissioned by The Ministry of Health and Social Affairs. The survey was conducted by two questionnaire that was sent out with one and a half year intervals to 1600 beneficiaries based on a sample from the Social Security Administration. Of these, 645 people answered on the first form, and these were therefore sent a form number two to chart the development.

title: Mapping the daycare employees who are exempted from the requirement of education as preschool teachers, Other municipalities, 2001

description: "Mapping the daycare employees who are exempted from the requirement of education as preschool teachers, Other municipalities" was conducted by Agder Research in 2001. The study deals with exemptions for the requirement of appropriate education in day-care centers. By the authorities it is considered as a problem that employees work without adequate educational training. Conversely, temporary employment, or employees without sufficient education, can be a resource for kindergarten management. The survey was commissioned by BLD and KS to identify and analyze the use of exemptions, and kindergarten staff on exemptions, from educational requirements. The range consists of both public and private kindergartens. This file deals with "Other municipalities".
