Level of living among immigrants, 1996, interview file

The dataset is derived from the "Level of living among immigrants 1996" survey, commisioned by the Ministry of Labour and Social Inclusion and conducted by Statistics Norway. The purpose of the survey is to map out the important aspects of the living conditions of different immigration groups and their descendants in Norway. A similar surveys was conducted in 1983 (the research foundation FAFO also carried out two relevant surveys in Oslo in 18993 and 1995), but only including immigrants that weren't Norwegian residents and first and second generatopm immigrants with Norwegian citizenship. In the 1996 survey, both foreign citizens and first and second generation immigrants of Norwegian citizenship were included. The questions included in the survey covers issues such as residence and living conditions, household/family, children, proffession/working conditions, education, bullying/violence, friends/family, leisure activities and membership in different unions and organisations. In order to make it possible to compare the situation for the immigration population with the Norwegian population, a big part of the questionnaire is derived from the Level of Living survey 1995, the Living conditions survey 1995, the Level of Living for long-term unemployed 1991 and the level of living survey for foreign citizens 1983. The survey comprises persons with background from former Yugoslavia, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan. Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Somalia and Chile. The data from the survey are available on two different files, the interview file (N = 2561) and the household file ( N = 9548). The interview file contains the interview based data for immigrants that weren't interviewed, besides additional register data for the respondents, and in some cases for the persons in the respondents' households. This is the interview file. Additional variables: Some variables are derived from the income register. This register is composed by data from several sources: (1) Population statistics in SSB, (2) The Tax Register for Personal Tax Payers, (3) Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund, (4) Norwegian State Housing Bank living support register, (5) Social Aid Register, (6) GR1 (National Insurance Administration), (7) Children benefits (calculated for 1994), (8) Education register, (9) register on End of the Year Certificates (10) Tax Return Register. In addition, two variables are calculated (12) combined income and Disposable income. The last letter (or the two last) in the variables on individual level indicates which part of the income register that is used. L- The Tax Register for Personal Tax Payers, U- Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund, H - Norwegian State Housing Bank. S - Social Aid Register, R- National Insurance Administration, B- Children benefits, T- register on End of the Year Certificates , SA- Tax return. Also, the file contains variables that stems from (a) birth country file (situation pr 1.1.1996), (b) employee/employer register (1st quarter of 1996), (c) SOFA-applicant register(1st quarter 1996), and (d) education register (highest education in population 1.10.1994).本数据集源自挪威劳工与社会包容部委托、挪威统计总局（Statistics Norway）实施的《1996年移民生活水平》调查。本次调查旨在梳理挪威境内不同移民群体及其后代的生活状况核心维度。1983年曾开展过同类调查（FAFO研究基金会还曾于1993年和1995年在奥斯陆实施两项相关调查），但彼时仅纳入非挪威常住居民移民以及持有挪威国籍的第一、二代移民；而1996年的本次调查则同时纳入了外国公民与持有挪威国籍的第一、二代移民。 本次调查的问卷涵盖居住与生活状况、家庭/户、子女、职业与工作环境、教育、欺凌/暴力、社交往来、休闲活动以及各类工会与组织的会员身份等议题。为便于对比移民群体与挪威本土民众的生活状况，本次问卷的大量内容源自《1995年生活水平调查》《1995年生活状况调查》《1991年长期失业者生活水平调查》以及《1983年外国公民生活水平调查》。 本次调查的受访对象涵盖来自前南斯拉夫、土耳其、伊朗、巴基斯坦、越南、斯里兰卡、索马里及智利的移民背景群体。 本次调查的数据分为两个文件：访谈文件（样本量N=2561）与户级文件（样本量N=9548）。本访谈文件包含未参与访谈的移民的访谈相关数据，此外还包含受访者的附加登记数据，部分情况下还涵盖受访者家庭内成员的相关登记数据。本文件即为访谈文件。 ### 附加变量说明 部分变量源自收入登记库。该登记库的数据来源包括：(1) 挪威统计总局（SSB）的人口统计数据；(2) 个人纳税人税务登记库；(3) 挪威国家教育贷款基金；(4) 挪威国家住房银行生活保障登记库；(5) 社会救助登记库；(6) GR1（挪威国家保险管理局）；(7) 儿童福利金（按1994年标准核算）；(8) 教育登记库；(9) 年终证明登记库；(10) 纳税申报登记库。此外，还通过计算生成了两项变量：综合收入与可支配收入。 个体层面变量的末尾单个字母（或两个字母）可指示其所使用的收入登记库来源：L代表个人纳税人税务登记库，U代表挪威国家教育贷款基金，H代表挪威国家住房银行，S代表社会救助登记库，R代表挪威国家保险管理局，B代表儿童福利金，T代表年终证明登记库，SA代表纳税申报登记库。 此外，本文件还包含源自以下数据源的变量：(a) 出生国登记文件（截至1996年1月1日的人口状况）；(b) 雇员/雇主登记库（1996年第一季度）；(c) SOFA申请人登记库（1996年第一季度）；(d) 教育登记库（截至1994年10月1日的人口最高学历情况）。
