本研究的主要目的是评估通过回顾性访谈问题获得的职业史信息的质量。 这项评估是通过将瑞典生活条件调查的访谈数据与从一些人口普查中获得的关于同一个人的职业信息联系起来进行的。 1960、1970、1975和1980年的人口普查都是这样做的。 在ULF和普查中，职业都是根据北欧职业分类（尼克）进行分类的。 两个数据源都包含错误。 在定义和衡量程序上也有差异。 尽管如此，关于职业史的调查问题在与普查数据的一致性方面给出了高质量的结果。 对于分类方案的粗略级别（尼克1位数级别）尤其如此。 在时间上最早的比较中，一致性略低。
The main purpose of the present study was to assess the quality of information about occupational history obtained via retrospective interview questions. This assessment is achieved by linking interview data from the Swedish survey of Living Conditions (ULF) with occupational information about the same individuals obtained from a number of cenuses. This has been done for the census years 1960, 1970, 1975 and 1980. In both ULF and the census, occupations have been classified according to the Nordic Occupational Classification (NYK). Both data sources contain errors. There are also differences in definitions and measurement procedures. Still, the survey question on occupational history gives results of good quality in terms of agreement with census data. This is especially the case for coarse levels of the classification scheme (NYK 1-digit level). The agreement is somewhat lower for the comparisons farthest back in time.
