| The Estonian Longitudinal Survey (ELS) actually began in 1966 when Mikk Titma conducted the first stage of survey on a cohort of Estonian Young people, who were at that time eighteen-years-old students in their last year of Estonian-language general secondary school. Titma last interviewed these respondents in 1979. The principal aim of the survey was to study both continuity and change in the social and political life in Estonia between the late 1970s and 1991. The survey had two foci: (1) individual life course changes relating to education, marriage, childbearing, labor-force participation, and career advancement; and (2) intra- and intergenerational change in social and political attitudes. |

| Of the ethnic Estonians who were intervied in the earlier rounds of the ELS, approximately 1.400 were reintervied in 199l. In 1979, the respondents were about age 31; in 1991 they were about age 43. The control group of non-Estonians from the same cohort was comprised of 519 respondents. Together these two groups of respondents comprise what we shall call the "older cohort" or the "parenthal cohort". If these respondents had children who were older than 16, then they were also interviewed. Children were identified and located through their parents. In this way 778 Estonian and 219 non-Estonian "children" were interviewed. This cohort is referred to as the "children's" or "youth" cohort in our study. This sampling strategy was the result of a conscious decision about how to take advantage of the existing data from 1979. Because they completed general secondary school, the respondents from the Estonian older generation represented the upper 50 percent in educational attainment of their cohort. Seventy-five percent of them received further education after completion of general secondary school, by either completing higher education or at least enrolling higher education for a while. Non-Estonians in the study were chosen from those who had an extended opportunity to adapt life in Estonia. All had lived in Estonia for at least twenty-five years. Most were born in Estonia. Because of both their educational levels and their long-term residence in Estonia, the Estonian and Russian respondents in the older cohort were more similar in background than the "average" Estonian and Russian of the same cohort. |

| The early stages of ELS had been conducted in a self-administered paper-and-pencil format. The administration of the first survey in 1966 was perhaps simplest of all because it was done in the classrooms. For the 1979 survey, however, it was decided that the structure of instruments had became too complex to rely on a self-administered format and interviewers were used. The interviewers were hired through academic networks and both Estonians and Russians were used.
The pretest was conducted in January 1991 using approximately 25 interviews and contained mainly new questions. Attempts to contact respondents began in October 1990 when letters were sent to those people who had been selected for the sample. Addresses were obtained from the Estonian address bureau in Tallinn. The potential respondents were required to return postcard indicating if they were willing to participate in the study. Interviewers were assigned lists of respondents, names, addresses, and if available, telephone numbers.
The field work started in February and was largely finished by the middle of June. Fifty-five percent of the interviews were conducted in the homes of the respondents, while 27 percent were conducted in their places of work. Another 6 percent were conducted in various public places (such as cafes), while 12 percent were conducted in special rooms at our facilities in Tallinn and Tartu. |
