Het Sociaal en Cultureel Planbureau (SCP) voert sinds 1975 (twee)jaarlijks het onderzoek Culturele Veranderingen in Nederland uit. De reeks bestaat inmiddels uit 30 onderzoeken en bevat zo’n 3500 variabelen en gegevens over meer dan 50.000 respondenten.De onderzoeken Culturele Veranderingen in Nederland (CV) en SCP Leefsituatie Index (SLI) worden sinds 2004 tweejaarlijks gecombineerd uitgevoerd in samenwerking door het Sociaal Cultureel Planbureau (SCP) en het Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek (CBS).Doel van CV is vaststellen welke opvattingen “de Nederlander” heeft over samenleving en cultuur en hoe deze in de loop van de tijd zijn veranderd. Doel van SLI is het ontwikkelen van een indicator om de sociale leefsituatie van Nederland in kaart te brengen en het monitoren van de ontwikkeling van de sociale leefsituatie van de Nederlandse bevolking.De onderzoeken liggen aan de basis van veel onderzoek uit het werkprogramma van het SCP. Door het CBS zullen de data vooral worden gebruikt ten behoeve van het speerpunt Sociale Samenhang.
