A $150,000 grant from the Icelandic Centre of Research will fund the continuing inclusion of Iceland in the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP).  This cross-national collaboration across 49 countries allows researchers around the world to compare attitudes and social conditions, and Iceland is an important case for such comparisons.  Professor Sigrun Olafsdottir will be the principal investigator, developing two survey modules, focused on Gender and Changing Family Roles and on Nationalism.
