TABLE 6.2 CONNECTEDNESS TO THE PAST FOLLOW-UP RATIOS
 

In order to keep down the length and cost of the interviews, we only asked follow-up questions of some respondents. The table below indicates the number and percentage of people who were asked the follow-up questions if they described a setting as making them feel particularly connected or unconnected to the past by giving it rating of 7-10 or 1-3.
