    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;The purpose of the study&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;: to identify which criminal offenses Lithuanian residents were affected by in 2005. 
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Major investigated questions&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;: respondents were asked how many times they personally suffered from crimes in 2005. Those who had experienced crimes were asked to specify the types of crimes and how many times they had been affected. The aim was to determine the location of the crime and the damage incurred. Respondents were asked to identify who committed the crime and describe the circumstances of the incident. They were also asked whether they reported the incident to law enforcement authorities and whether they received a decision recognizing them as a victim. The study explored the stage of the pre-trial investigation regarding the experienced criminal offense. All respondents were asked whether they feel safe from criminal offenses in Lithuania and what factors most influence their sense of (in)security.
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Socio-demographic characteristics&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;: gender, age, education, employment status, occupation, adult marital status, child marital status, ethnicity, number of family members, income per family member, place of residence, size of residence, region.</description>
