Abstract
The paper provides a description of the Norwegcan Study of Organizations and Employees (NSOE). in which data were collected at the establishment level as well as from individual employees. Research design as well as fieldwork are discussed. Using wage determination as an example. the usefulness of this kind of multi-level data collection is illustrated by means of two kinds of analysis: viz. within group estimation. to remove selectivity bias. and contextual analysis. to examine how organizational characteristics affect individual level outcomesKeywords
