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

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.

《2001年挪威单亲父母过渡津贴制度变化评估》调查的开展，源于1998年1月1日起单亲父母过渡福利领取规定的变更。福利领取条件被收紧，行政部门获得了设定分配条件的权限，这缩小了津贴的发放范围。本研究旨在确定上述变更对该类福利领取者的影响。该调查由卑尔根大学社会学系副教授Liv Johanne Syltevik牵头开展，受卫生和社会事务部委托。调查通过两份问卷实施，基于社会保障局的样本向1600名福利领取者分两次发放，间隔一年半；其中645人完成了第一份问卷，因此他们被发放第二份问卷以追踪情况变化。
