AbstractAn important methodological question in the general discourses concerning the quality of life is scale and mutual relationship of its two dimensions. In this article, the subjective dimension is understood as well-being; data from its spatial differentiation in districts of the Czech Republic were obtained from a face-to-face interview. The objective dimension is understood from the geographical aspect as quality of a place; it is quantified by the indicators of the golden standard of quality of life. Data from its spatial differentiation in districts of the Czech Republic are secondary. The article aims to compare the data of well-being and quality of a place for all the districts, with a premise of a higher level of well-being in the districts with a higher quality of a place, and vice-versa. This would answer the question of whether the quality of a place affects well-being.

This paper evaluates two competing theories for explaining and tackling undeclared work. The dominant rational economic actor approach views undeclared work as arising when the perceived benefits of engaging in undeclared work outweigh the costs, so attention is put on increasing the costs, whilst the more recent social actor approach views undeclared work to result from the lack of citizens’ commitment to compliance and thus attempts to enhance vertical and horizontal trust. To evaluate these theories, 1,024 and 1,000 face-to-face interviews undertaken in 2007 and 2013 with a representative sample in the Czech Republic are analysed. The finding is that higher perceived penalties and risks of detection have no significant impact on the likelihood of conducting undeclared work. In contrast, the level of vertical and horizontal trust have a significant impact on engagement in undeclared work; the higher the vertical and horizontal trust, the lower is the likelihood of participation in undeclared work. The theoretical implication is that this evidence supports a new social actor approach. The policy implication is that the rational economic actor approach of increasing the penalties and risks of detection appears ineffective, and a new policy approach is proposed focused on improving vertical and horizontal trust.

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of different modes of administration (face-to-face v. telephone), recall days (first v. second), days of the week (weekday v. weekend) and interview days (1 d later v. 2 d later) on bias in protein and K intakes collected with 24 h dietary recalls (24-HDR).DesignTwo non-consecutive 24-HDR (collected with standardised EPIC-Soft software) were used to estimate protein and K intakes by a face-to-face interview at the research centres and a telephone interview, and included all days of the week. Two 24 h urine collections were used to determine biomarkers of protein and K intake. The bias in intake was defined as the ratio between the 24-HDR estimate and the biomarker.SettingFive centres in Belgium, Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands and Norway in the European Food Consumption Validation (EFCOVAL) study.SubjectsAbout 120 adults (aged 45–65 years) per centre.ResultsThe bias in protein intake in the Czech Republic and Norway was smaller for telephone than face-to-face interviews (P = 0·01). The second 24-HDR estimates of protein intake in France and K intake in Belgium had a larger bias than the first 24-HDR (P = 0·01 and 0·04, respectively). In the Czech Republic, protein intake estimated during weekends and K intake estimated during weekdays had a larger bias than during other days of the week (P = 0·01). In addition, K intake collected 2 d later in the Czech Republic was likely to be overestimated.ConclusionsThe biases in protein and K intakes were comparable between modes of administration, recall days, days of the week and interview days in some, but not all, study centres.

For effective victim-focused legislation, evidence-based knowledge is essential, thus making criminological research of great importance. Victimization surveys represent a globally recognized type of criminological investigation. Although they are primarily focused on measuring the dark figure of crime, they can also provide a broad spectrum of information on victimization-related issues. The latest victimization survey was carried out in the Czech Republic by the Institute of Criminology and Social Prevention in 2013. Through face to face interviews, victimization was explored through eight selected offences in the period of 12 months prior the survey. The representative sample included 3000 respondents 15 years of age and older. The next round is planned for 2017. Since 2013, a new Act no. 45/2013 Coll., on Victims of Crime has come into effect in the Czech Republic. This paper will discuss how victimization surveys can enrich the knowledge on victimization-related issues and how they can help in the evaluation of criminal policy.
