Income Study 2003, household file

Statistics Norway (SSB) conducted wide-ranging Income Studies in 1958, 1962, 1967, 1970, 1973, 1976, 1979 and 1982. As of 1984, SSB moved to a system of annual surveys. This entailed changes, more in terms of sample size and sampling method than the type of information that was gathered. The information is mainly decided by what is available in public tax assessment records. The Income Studies should not be considered ordinary sample surveys, they are based on a sample drawn from registers from the Norwegian equivalent to the Internal Revenue Service. This means that foreign citizens would be part of the sample if they are registered in the Central Person Register, which they will normally be if they have valid work and residence permits. Children born during the year in question will be included in the sample regardless of birth date, and so will persons dying that the year. The objective of the Income Studies have been to elucidate the income conditions for the entire population and for different groups. A main point is to gather statistics on households that live and eat together, as well as getting an overview of the distribution of persons and households by size of income, socio-economic groups, household type, geography etc. Another objective is to collect income and fortune data as a backdrop for the Level of Living and Consumer surveys. Information is gathered om all types of income, fortune, taxes, income for individuals and households. Some information is added from other registers (amongst others, marital status and family composition, whilst information on household composition is gathered through interviews. In addition, one generally includes information on education, profession and occupation for individuals and household composition, type and primary income recipients for the households. There exist both a household file and a person file. These are documented separately. This is the household file.挪威统计署（Statistics Norway, SSB）曾于1958年、1962年、1967年、1970年、1973年、1976年、1979年及1982年开展多次大范围收入研究。截至1984年，挪威统计署改为采用年度调查体系，此次调整带来诸多变化，相较于调查采集的信息类型，样本规模与抽样方法的调整更为显著。调查采集的信息主要来源于公开的税收评估记录。 本收入研究并非普通抽样调查，其样本取自挪威等同于美国国税局的税务管理机构的登记数据。这意味着，外国公民若在挪威中央人口登记系统完成注册即可纳入样本——而持有有效工作与居留许可的外国公民通常都会完成该注册。当年出生的儿童无论出生日期为何，均可纳入样本；当年去世的人员亦同。 本收入研究的目标在于阐明全体国民及不同群体的收入状况。核心内容之一是采集共同居住、共同生活的家庭的统计数据，并基于收入规模、社会经济群体、家庭类型、地域分布等维度，梳理人口与家庭的分布概况。另一项目标是收集收入与财富数据，作为生活水平调查与消费者调查的背景支撑。调查采集的信息涵盖各类收入、财富、税收数据，以及个人与家庭的收入情况。部分信息取自其他登记数据（包括婚姻状况与家庭结构），而家庭构成信息则通过访谈采集。此外，通常还会纳入个人的教育背景、职业与行业信息，以及家庭的构成、类型与主要收入来源者相关数据。 该数据集包含家庭档案与个人档案两类文件，二者分别归档。本数据集即为家庭档案。
