Swedish term
referensgrupp
Swedish to English
Social Sciences
Science (general)
This concerns a description of a research project in the social sciences carried out by a number of academics who also have access to a "referensgrupp" consisting of various, non-academic actors operating in this field. As far as I can tell, this "referensgrupp" is to offer support, advice and different perspectives on the topic being studied.

: As far as I know, a reference group is a group that's part of the population being studied but receiving no treatment.
