q An overwhelming majority feel that BiH is moving in the wrong direction.q Almost nine-in-ten citizens (87%) say that things in BiH are moving in the wrong
direction, a slightly higher percentage than observed in earlier waves of research conducted in October 2009 and April 2010.
q The percentage of the population thinking things are moving in the right direction is much higher in the northern Republika Srpska (RS) and Brcko District (26%) than in other regions of the country.
q Only one citizen in 10 (12%) report that their lives have improved over the last 4 years. q More than one half of citizens (54%) think that their lives have deteriorated; one-
third say that their lives have not changed (34%). q The percentage of those who say their lives have improved is slightly higher in
northern RS (20%), whereas the residents of central Bosnia overwhelmingly think that their living conditions are worse then before (75%).
q Expectations for the year ahead are split, but are not optimistic: q 23% expect life to improve for themselves and their families, 39% think that it will
stay the same, and 37% think that their lives will further deteriorate.

GENERAL GENERAL ATTITUDESATTITUDES
q The above assessments are deeply connected to individual and family finances. q Only 14% of respondents report improvement in their household financial situation
over the last 12 months. q More than eight in 10 say that their household financial position has either
stagnated (43%) or deteriorated (41%). qq By an overwhelming margin, survey respondents think that the major problem in BiH is
unemployment. q In an open ended question, 41% cite unemployment first when asked the top three
problems faced by BiH, while the next two problems – corruption and crime are mentioned first by 13% and 6%, respectively.
q In addition to unemployment, other economic issues – poverty, living standards, salaries, pensions etc. are mentioned by many respondents, making it very clear that the stagnant economy and household finances are driving public attitudes and framing this election in the minds of voters.
q A subsequent closed question reiterates this point – out of seven choices, 51% cite economic development and employment as most important for improving the lives of BiH citizens.
