The Department of the Taoiseach funds the Social Activity Measure (SAM) which is a behavioural study that records the public response to the risk of COVID-19 infection and COVID-19 guidelines. Designed by the Economic and Social Research Institute's Behavioural Research Unit, SAM is an anonymous, interactive, online study that surveys people about their recent activity. The study seeks to ascertain how risks of COVID-19 transmission arise and what factors are influencing how people are responding to restrictions and the risk of COVID-19. The survey is conducted fortnightly, with each survey costing €15,837.
