DIGSSCORE

The Digital Social Science Core Facility (DIGSSCORE) is an infrastructure for advanced social science data collection and multi-disciplinary research. DIGSSCORE takes advantage of changes in technology and research methodology, and is an infrastructure with three population panels: The Norwegian Citizen Panel, the Norwegian Panel of Elected Representatives and the Norwegian Panel of Public Administrators. Onsite we also have a research lab for laboratory experiments, the Citizen Lab.

To learn more about our data, conditions of use and citing of the data, read more about the different panels.
