Results of the survey conducted from March 15 to 20 found 38 percent of the respondents saying their quality of life stayed the same in the past 12 months.

Some 31 percent said it improved, while another 30 percent said it got worse.

Although the percentage who said their lives improved was similar to the results of an SWS survey in February, those who said it worsened increased by five points from 25 percent.

Those who said it stayed the same dropped from 43 percent in February.
