The National SOM Survey 2011
https://doi.org/10.5878/002326
Since 1986 the SOM-institute has been carrying out an annual nation-wide survey - the National SOM - in order to identify the Swedish public's habits and attitudes on the topics of society, politics and media. National SOM 2011 is accordingly the twentyfifth survey in this series.
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.
The SOM Institute also has an online tool for data analysis, where you can work with data from the national SOM surveys directly in your web browser. You can find it at https://som-institutet.se/dataanalysOpens in a new tab
