Deliverable 6.2 - Open source toolbox of qualitative and quantitative methods and scales to investigate affected populations’ and stakeholders’ risk perceptions, views, opinions, motivations, attitudes and behaviour in radon areas and NORM exposures including methodological guidelines

One of the objectives of the RadoNorm project is to develop an open source toolbox of qualitative and quantitative methods and scales, including a comprehensive database related to affected populations and stakeholders risk perception, view, attitudes and behaviour in radon and NORM exposures leading
to integration of the radiation protection scientific community at EU level and a better coordination of social science and humanities research efforts. This deliverable (D6.2) describes the toolbox, its content and structure. This methodological toolbox is designed to enable social science researchers and
practitioners in the field of radon communication to have access to the different methods and scales developed and used during the RadoNorm project to investigate different aspects related to radon risk, knowledge, attitudes, behaviour, etc. The toolbox also provides methodological guidelines on how to
use the different tools. By using this toolbox, WP6 RadoNorm researchers make their publications available in open access and make their data as open as possible and as closed as necessary, following the EU’s open science policy.
The toolbox is integrated into the web platform STOREDB which archives and shares the primary data outputs from research on low dose radiation. STOREDB is maintained by the RadoNorm coordinator BfS.
