Abstract:

The article discusses the quality of life of the indigenous peoples of the North of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Ugra (Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Ugra). The relevance of the topic is related to the level of employment and an aging population, changing family relationships and social exclusion. Taken together, all this highlighted the problems of quality of life. The main objective was to study and generalize the attitude of representatives of the indigenous peoples of the North to measures of state support for low-income citizens. The material of the study was the data of the sociological survey “The level of satisfaction with the provision of additional guarantees and measures of state support to low-income indigenous citizens of the North of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Ugra” (2018), achieved through the questionnaire method. Processing of its results was carried out in the program for processing sociological information “Votex”. For instance, the results of sociological studies conducted for the first time on this topic on the territory of the municipalities of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Ugra in 2018 are summarized and analyzed. The studies were conducted using the questionnaire method. The questionnaire contained 19 questions with answer options. The respondents could simply select only those responses that they considered acceptable. According to the research results, the majority of respondents (61,2 %) noted that they are satisfied with the list and the amount of state support to low-income indigenous people. And 32, 9 % of respondents said that they are not satisfied.
