Primary research

Our research institute regularly carries out large sample researches to gain a deeper understanding of the information society in our country and in neighbouring countries. As part of our social engagement, we make the full database of our data available to the public, hoping to enrich the information society research with primary data. The databases are licensed under the Creative Commons CC BY-NC-ND. If you are interested in the databases and questionnaires, please contact Árpád Rab at rab.arpad.szoreny@uni.nke.hu. All our data are representative of the total Hungarian population by gender, age, education and type of settlement.
