The Community SOM Survey 2004: Lerum

Every year since 1986, the SOM Institute carries out a nationwide survey, National SOM (Riks-SOM), in which people are asked questions about politics, society, their use of media, public service, the environment, risks, new media technology and their leisure-time activities. Since 1992 a corresponding survey is carried out in Göteborg and its surrounding communities: Western SOM (Väst-SOM). Starting in 1996, a local study, Community SOM (Kom-SOM), is carried out in different municipalities surrounding Göteborg as well as town districts in the city of Göteborg. The results from these surveys shed light on three levels of society: the national, the regional and the municipal. The 2004 questionnaire consists of seven parts: Mass media; Politics and society; Society and service; Environmental and lifestyle issues; Municipal information; Working life; and background. The 2004 municipal survey was conducted in collaboration with Kinnmark Information.自1986年起，SOM研究所（SOM Institute）每年都会开展一项全国性调查——全国SOM（National SOM，瑞典语原称Riks-SOM），就政治、社会、媒介使用、公共服务、环境、风险议题、新媒体技术及休闲活动等内容对受访者进行问询。1992年起，该研究所同步在哥德堡及其周边社区开展对应调查：西部SOM（Western SOM，瑞典语原称Väst-SOM）。1996年起，研究所在哥德堡市内街区及周边各市镇开展地方性研究项目——社区SOM（Community SOM，瑞典语原称Kom-SOM）。上述三项调查的结果可从国家、区域、市镇三个社会层面揭示社会的运行样貌与特征。 2004年的调查问卷共包含七个部分：大众媒介、政治与社会、社会与公共服务、环境与生活方式议题、市镇事务信息、职场生活，以及背景信息。 2004年的市镇层面调查由Kinnmark信息公司（Kinnmark Information）合作开展。
