<br>
<b><i>Major investigated questions</i></b>: respondents were asked what they did in 1990 and how their standard of living had changed. They were asked what 1990 meant for Lithuania - whether the chances of true independence had increased or decreased and what it meant for the country's economy. This was followed by an assessment of how the respondents' standard of living would change in the next few years and what they personally expected and feared in 1991. They also wanted to know what the next year would bring for Lithuania and the Soviet Union in various political, economic and social areas. Respondents were asked how they envisioned Lithuania's relations with the USSR in the future and what they thought of the Lithuanian Democratic Labour Party (formerly the independent LCP) led by A. Brazauskas. After a block of questions, they wanted to find out the reasons why the Lithuanian population was not willing to participate in the local elections (municipal council elections) in 1990. The interviewee was also asked whether he or she would personally participate in the new municipal council elections. Further, an attempt was made to find out whether the respondent's families had enough of the various food items on the vouchers and where they usually got smoked meat products. The respondent was asked if he often drinks coffee. It was clarified whether there should be grocery stores open 24 hours a day and whether grocery stores should be open on Sundays and for how long. Lithuanian residents who participated in the survey were asked how they felt about the current retail system. The questionnaire block explained how they would act so that their family's prosperity would not suffer if prices increased. It also asked opinions on whether the respondents would like to have their own business or become owners of a catering business. They were asked if they would have their own money to buy a shop, café, canteen, restaurant or similar. And whether they would apply for a loan. Further, they were asked whether anyone should be given preference in the sale of shops, cafes, canteens, restaurants, etc. And whether it can be sold to any foreigner - not a Lithuanian citizen. Finally, the question was asked whether the respondents would like to go to a Western country to live or work.
