The data from the Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test is a unique source of research with historical exam data from 1977 to the present day. Here you will find information about the disclosure process and an application form for researchers.
You can submit an application for access to the SweSAT database. You can do this by:
Define the desired data collection with the survey period and which variables you want to include in the list below. If variable data does not exist for the year(s) you have selected, you will receive a blank response.
Formulate the research questions that the study wants to answer and provide other information according to the form.
The SweSAT data contains personal data, which means that a planned collection for research purposes must usually first have been reviewed and approved through an ethics review. Information about the ethics review of the research project must be enclosed with your order.
Review of application
The SweSAT working group reviews each application based on current legislation on access to information and confidentiality before data can be released. After the order has been submitted, we will produce a cost estimate. This cost estimate must be approved before we can process the application further. After the cost estimate has been approved, the application is reviewed by the SweSAT working group for possible approval and release of data. We may contact you at any time during the process to request additional information or documentation.
Reference
When publishing research that uses commissioned data, you should always refer to the "SweSAT database, Department of Applied Educational Sciences, Umeå University".
