We asked respondents to indicate how much control they had over their lives and how optimistic they were about the future, using a scale on which ten indicated a highly optimistic sense of control and one a deep level of powerlessness and pessimism.
Požádali jsme respondenty, aby uvedli, jakou mají nad svými životy kontrolu a nakolik optimisticky se dívají do budoucna, přičemž jsme použili stupnici, na níž desítka znamenala vysoce optimistický pocit kontroly nad životem a jednička hlubokou míru bezmoci a pesimismu.
