Terms of use

ETF-data is only permitted to be used within the project which is specified in the application.

In order to secure stable funding of the ETF-project it is important to show how the data has been used. For this reason every publication based on ETF-data is obliged to include a reference to: Härnqvist, K. (2000). Evaluation through follow-up. A longitudinal program for studying education and career development. In C.-G. Janson (Ed.), Seven Swedish longitudinal studies in behavioral science (pp. 76-114). Stockholm: Forskningsrådsnämnden.

Also, one copy of all publications and contributions to symposiums or conferences should be sent to the ETF-project. We always appreciate an e-mail with information about new publications based on ETF-data.
