The National SOM Survey 2001

Since 1986 the SOM-institute has been carrying out an annual nation-wide survey of Swedish opinions. This is accordingly the seventeenth survey in this series. The SOM-institute is a collaboration between three departments at Göteborg University: the Institute for Journalism and Mass Communication, the Department of Political Science, and the School of Public Administration. Since 1998 the survey includes two nation representative samples and uses two different mail questionnaires. One of the questionnaires mainly deals with questions on politics, economy and working life, while the other mainly deals with media, culture and health. One third of the questions asked in the two questionnaires are common for both samples, for example questions about media habits, political attitudes, leisure activities, and social background. Purpose: The main purpose is to establish time series that enable researchers to analyse how various changes in society affect people's attitudes and behaviour.自1986年起，SOM研究所（SOM-institute）便持续开展年度性全瑞典民意调查，本次调研即为该系列的第十七轮调查。 SOM研究所由哥德堡大学（Göteborg University）下属三个院系联合组建：新闻与大众传播研究所、政治学系与公共管理学院。 自1998年起，该调查采用两组全国代表性样本，并依托两套不同的邮寄问卷实施。其中一套问卷主要聚焦政治、经济与职场生活相关议题，另一套则侧重媒体、文化与健康领域话题。两套问卷中约三分之一的题目为两组样本共用，涵盖媒体使用习惯、政治态度、休闲活动及社会背景等内容。 研究目的： 本次调研的核心宗旨为构建时间序列数据集，以供研究者分析社会各类变迁如何影响民众的态度与行为。
