Summary:

This survey was undertaken to assess consumer sentiment and buying plans, as well as federal income tax filing and ownership and use of automobiles. Open-ended questions were asked concerning evaluations and expectations about price changes, employment, recession, and the national business situation. Other variables probe respondents' buying intentions for a house, automobiles, appliances, and other consumer durables, as well as their appraisals of present market conditions for purchasing these items. Additional variables probe respondents' opinions on government spending, tax increases, and welfare spending, as well as their assessment of their financial status relative to the previous year. Demographic variables provide information on age, sex, race, marital status, education, occupation, and family income.
