It follows the first sociological research on the Catholic religiousity in Slovakia in a nationwide scope, carried out by Professor J. Matulník, while it concentrates on examining respondents´ attitudes towards cohabitation of a man and a woman, towards a divorce from sacred marriage and towards entering into mixed marriages. The mentioned issues were examined from the point of view of the young and the older people, who were divided into two age groups, up to 35 and above 35, and according to their Church affiliation.
