SCB ger en kurs om metoder för populationer som är svåra att undersöka
This short course will examine different types of hard-to-survey populations. Some of these populations are rare; others are hidden; some are difficult to find or contact; still others are unlikely to cooperate with survey requests. We distinguish populations that are hard to sample, those whose members who are hard to identify, those that are hard to find or contact, those whose members are hard to persuade to take part, and those whose members are willing to take part but nonetheless hard to interview. These distinctions reflect the main steps in most surveys.

När: Onsdag den 10 april 2019 kl. 09.30-16.30
Var: Bullerbyn, Karlavägen 100, Stockholm
Kursavgift: 2 000kr exklusive moms
Sista anmälningsdag: 4 april
