A new conceptual perspective has been added in recent survey by following the dynamic changes in the level of living experienced by individuals during the course of their lifetime, e.g. their occupational career, family (cohabitation, marriages, children), housing mobility etc. Standard questions asked about living conditions of respondents - e.g. health status, education, employment, working conditions, economic resources, housing standards, leisure activities, and safety of life and possessions. Some demographic data about spouse/partner, father and mother of respondent are given, including education, ethnicity and occupation. Migrations are described.
