Norwegian Statistical Association

The Norwegian Statistical Association (Norsk statistisk forening, NSF) has three local societies located respectively in Oslo, Bergen, and Trondheim. The NSF has its own magazine called Tilfeldig Gang (Random Walk). The Society is one of the four organisations responsible for the journal Scandinavian Journal of Statistics (SJS).

The NSF was founded on January 7, 1919. The main goal of the Association was to act as a connection between Norwegian statisticians and to promote their research and professional interests. The Association also aims to make the relationship between statisticians from the Nordic countries stronger and to increase contact with the international statistical society. In 2007, the Association set up the Sverdrup Prize, to be awarded eminent representatives of the statistics profession. The Sverdrup Prizes are awarded every second year, most often in connection with the Association's biennial conferences.

The Association works strongly to promote and increase interest for statistics in the school system as well as in the rest of the society.

gollark: ```Harassing other players or staff regarding the reasoning for a mute or ban, or arguing with the terms of the mute or ban, can result in extension of the mute or ban, even permanently.```also seems ridiculous, given that amazingly enough people are not always right due to being moderators.
gollark: Presumably.
gollark: Yes, but it's impossible to understand it all without ridiculous amounts of work reading the code.
