Family and Changing Gender Roles, 2012, Norwegian Part of ISSP

This survey is conducted on the basis of the research work in "The International Social Survey Program" (ISSP). ISSP is an international organization where members develop and coordinate annual surveys, mainly in the fields of political science and sociology. The topics of the surveys vary, but topics are replicated every few years so that it is possible to measure the changes in patterns of behavior and attitudes over time and differences between countries and cultures.

In 1989, Sikt - Norwegian Agency for Shared Services in Education and Research, became member of the ISSP and Sikt has since been responsible for conducting the survey in Norway.

In 2012, the goal was to collect data on family and worklife.
