<br>
<b><i>Major investigated questions</i></b>: respondents were asked how they evaluate the Law on the Restoration of the Independent State of Lithuania promulgated by the Supreme Council of the Republic of Lithuania in the 1990s on March 11 and the declaration of the USSR government on this law. It was asked whether the newly elected Supreme Council of the Republic of Lithuania fulfilled the expectations. It was clarified whether the respondents agree with the fact that Lithuania was included in the USSR against its will in 1940 and whether it is necessary to prove to Moscow in other ways that most people want Lithuania to be free. Further, the political activities of various Lithuanian political forces and movements and M. Gorbachev were evaluated. Respondents were asked whether they would live better or worse at the end of the year than they do now and how the well-being of the Lithuanian people would change in the next decade. Lithuanian residents who participated in the survey indicated how they thought Lithuania's economic independence should be implemented. They were asked whether they supported the proposal to sell state-owned enterprises to private individuals and how the state should exchange rubles for the new currency if new currency units were introduced in Lithuania. It was asked whether it might be necessary to change jobs this year and whether it would be difficult for respondents of their profession to find a job. It was asked whether Lithuanian residents who participated in the survey were satisfied with their family's financial situation. Opinions were asked about divorce, unauthorized abortion, the death penalty, and dealing with people infected with the AIDS virus. Furthermore, it was asked how many of the respondents have children, how many they will have and how many they would like to have if all the necessary conditions were given. It was asked whether it is good for children to attend preschool institutions and how best to provide material support to families raising children. Please indicate how preschool children should be cared for. Further, it was explained how convenient it would be for the mother to work if there are preschool children in the family, what is most necessary for the mother to raise the children at home by herself, and whether there is a law that requires the mother (until the child reaches the age of 8) to work part-time (during the week) with a corresponding lower salary. Respondents were also asked what kind of person can be called cultural now, whether there are many honest, decent people in Lithuania now, and what should be done to increase the number of such people. The residents of Lithuania who participated in the survey also rated the statements, "People live so badly now that they often have to act dishonestly and unfairly" and "Everyone would like to work less and get more." At the end of the survey they wanted to know if the respondents would like to earn more money in their free time and were asked to reveal their views on rock music.
