Mikrocensus 1972, 1. quarter: Extended Housing Survey, Smoking Habits

The special survey in March is on the topic of extended housing survey ("Erweiterte Wohnungserhebung"), just as in the previous years (Mikrozensus MZ7101, Mikrozensus MZ7001 Mikrozensus MZ6901,...) In addition, there are a few questions on smoking habits of the Austrian population. These questions are commissioned by the Federal Ministry for social administration as an important report for health policies. The impairment to health caused by smoking poses great problems for the institutions concerned with public health. Reports on the number of smokers and the attitude toward tobacco are urgently needed starting points for targeted measures against addiction.

本次三月开展的专项调查主题为拓展性住房调查（Erweiterte Wohnungserhebung），与往年的微型普查系列（Mikrozensus MZ7101、Mikrozensus MZ7001、Mikrozensus MZ6901等）一脉相承。此外，本次调查新增了若干针对奥地利民众吸烟习惯的调研问题。该部分调研内容由奥地利联邦社会事务部委托开展，旨在为卫生政策制定提供重要的支撑报告。吸烟所引发的健康损害，给公共卫生相关机构带来了诸多棘手难题。当前亟需掌握吸烟者规模及民众对烟草的态度等数据，以此作为制定烟草成瘾靶向干预措施的首要依据。
