Abstract

First interviewees compare their standard of living with that of five years previous. Next bloc focuses on attitudes toward work and satisfaction with job that respondents earn their living. They also express their view on policy that promotes employment of juveniles and evaluate reforms of pension insurance system. Next in a line, there are questions on political system in general, followed by ones regarding relations among Yugoslav republics. Bloc covering national security, defence, and Civil Defence follows after. Special chapter deals with reform of educational system that was introduced in the early 1980s. Bloc that covers culture comes next. Respondents, among other things, state if they engage in any cultural activities of their own. Last three chapters focus on Church and religion, interviewees' sporting activities (i.e. whether they engage in organized or unorganized ones), and reading habits (i.e. books, magazines, and comics) respectively. Demographic questions end the questionnaire.First interviewees compare their standard of living with that of five years previous.
