    Abstract

    Beginning with the fourth quarter of 1961, the Confederation of Irish Industry (C.1.1.) and the Economic and Social Research Institute (E.S.R.I.) have been jointly administering a quarterly survey of businessmen's attitudes in the Republic of Ireland. The results of this survey were circulated to C.I.I. members and since 1968 were published in the E.S.R.I.'s Quarterly Economic Commentary. Similar monthly surveys have been carried out on a coordinated basis by the member countries of the European Economic Community since 1961. On Ireland's accession to the E.E.C. it was decided to revise the C.1.1.-E.S.R.I. survey so as to ensure comparability with those in other member countries. The process of revision has now been completed: the last quarterly survey referred to the fist quarter of 1974, while the first monthly survey was carried out in March 1974, and has been continued on a regular basis since then. The purpose of this note is to describe the methods and coverage of the two surveys, to outline the uses to which the results may be put, and to suggest some directions for further research into both the methods and application of the surveys.
