A method for operating a sensor element having two contact terminal pairs, comprises steps of providing a first measurement value by applying a first controlled variable having a first polarity between the first terminal pair, and coupling the second terminal pair with output terminals; providing a second measurement value by applying a second controlled variable, having an opposed polarity, between the first terminal pair, and coupling the second terminal pair to the output terminals; providing a third measurement value by applying the first variable between the second terminal pair, and coupling the first terminal pair with the output terminals, providing a fourth measurement value by applying the second variable between the second terminal pair, and coupling the first terminal pair with the output terminals; and determining a sensor signal on the basis of a difference between the first and second values and a difference between the third and fourth values.
