How Americans View Their Lives: An Annual Survey

Robert Blendon and John Benson

Challenge, 2004, vol. 47, issue 3, pages 6-26

Abstract: With this issue, we introduce a new annual survey of Americans' attitudes toward their own lives and the state of the nation. Undertaken by two Harvard researchers and based on both their own surveys and the surveys of others, the analysis finds that Americans' optimism about their individual lives remains intact. What they are more concerned about is the state of the nation, along with their own future finances and ability to pay for health care. A majority now believe the nation is on the wrong track.
