Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of the research attempting to make a statistical analysis of subjective perception of wages and salaries as the main component of household income, using a specific econometric modelling. It was examined whether certain socio-demographic determinants could be identified and, if so, to what extent they could influence the subjective sense of satisfaction with wage and salaries. The research was conducted on the basis of data collected using a survey method in 2015 for a random sample of households in Podkarpackie voivodship, where wages and salaries are among the lowest in the country. The binomial models used to explain the qualitative variable depending on the level of exogenous variables (qualitative and quantitative) were compared. Logit and probit regression models made it possible to determine the probability of success as a chance of a positive response, i.e. (in relation to the scope of the research) a state of satisfaction with obtained wages and salaries.
