We conduct a survey on children's and young people's leisure time. Your answers are important and help to develop services for children and young people.

The study is carried out by the Ministry of Education and Culture, the State Youth Council, the National Sports Council and the Finnish Youth Research Society. Taloustutkimus Oy is responsible for the data collection.

Confidentiality

Taloustutkimus saves your answers securely and keeps them confidential. In the analysis stage, your responses are combined with the responses of other survey participants into a single dataset. Your responses will not be linked to your direct personal information so it is not possible to identify you through the responses. The responses of all survey participants are compiled into material that is used as a basis for research publications. In the publications, the responses are examined as part of a larger set of materials, and the responses of an individual respondent are not presented separately.

You will not receive any spam mail as a result of your participation.
