Religion, 20008, Norwegian part of ISSP, additional sample Agder

This survey is carried out on the basis of the research collaboration in "The International Social Survey Programme" (ISSP). ISSP is an international organisation that prepares and coordinates annual surveys in its member countries, mainly within the fields of political science and sociology. The topic of the surveys varies, but are repeated at intervals of a few years. In this way, changes in behavioral patterns and attitudes over time as well as differences between countries and cultures, are possible to be detected and measured. The Norwegian Social Science Data Services (NSD) became a member of ISSP in 1989 and have since been responsible for carrying out the surveys in Norway. In connection to the survey, Norwegian researchers are invited to add supplementary questions to the Norwegian respondents. In 2008, the survey's objective was to collect data on attitudes towards religion, religious socialisation, religious affiliation, faith and own religious practice, conceptions of faith, the relationship with and between religious and secular institutions, politics, moral and ethics, participation in voluntary work. NSD and ISSP conducted a similar survey in 1991 and 1998. The Norwegian additional part was in 2008 developed in collaboration with Pål Repstad and May-Linda Magnussen, University of Agder, Knut Lundby, Universitety of Oslo Ulla Schmidt, Olaf Aagedal and Pål Ketil Botvar, KIFO. The questions in the Norwegian part deal with religious symbols/dress, religion and society, bioethics, gender roles, religion in the media. Note that the survey's response rate is very low (40%). This data file contains the additional sample of the survey. The primary sample is available in a separate file.

本调研基于“国际社会调查项目”（The International Social Survey Programme, ISSP）的研究合作开展。ISSP是一家负责筹备并协调成员国年度调研的国际性组织，其研究领域主要涵盖政治学与社会学范畴。调研主题会定期更迭，且每数年重复一次，借此可侦测并量化行为模式与态度随时间的变迁，以及不同国家与文化间的差异。挪威社会科学数据服务中心（Norwegian Social Science Data Services, NSD）于1989年加入ISSP，自此负责挪威境内的调研执行工作。针对本次调研，挪威研究人员受邀可为挪威受访者增设补充问题。2008年的本次调研旨在收集以下维度的数据：民众对宗教的态度、宗教社会化（religious socialisation）、宗教归属、信仰与自身宗教实践、宗教观念、宗教与世俗机构的关系及二者间的互动、政治、道德与伦理，以及志愿工作参与情况。NSD与ISSP曾分别于1991年和1998年开展过同类调研。2008年的挪威补充调研模块由阿格德尔大学的帕尔·雷普斯塔德（Pål Repstad）与梅-琳达·曼努森（May-Linda Magnussen）、奥斯陆大学的克努特·伦德比（Knut Lundby），以及KIFO的乌拉·施密特（Ulla Schmidt）、奥拉夫·阿格达尔（Olaf Aagedal）与帕尔·基特尔·博特瓦尔（Pål Ketil Botvar）合作开发。挪威模块的调研问题涉及宗教符号/服饰、宗教与社会、生命伦理学（bioethics）、性别角色以及媒体中的宗教。需说明的是，本次调研的回收率极低（仅40%）。本数据文件收录本次调研的补充样本，主样本则存放于独立文件中。
