The Norwegian Statistical Association (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).

NSF was founded January 7th 1919. The main goal of the Association is to be a connection between Norwegian statisticians and promote their research and professional interests. The Association also wants to make the relationship between statisticians from the Nordic countries stronger and increase contact with the international statistical society.

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