The poll revealed, inter alia, that the Czech public considers petitions to be an almost generally acceptable form of protest pressure (only 10% of those polled stated they would never sign a petition), and that the majority is not opposed to boycotts or legal demonstrations. On the other hand, harsher methods of expressing dissatisfaction, such as participation in an unofficial strike, are openly supported by only three persons out of ten, while protests involving occupation of buildings are deemed acceptable by just over one tenth of the population.
The harsher forms of pressure are advocated mainly by the young population at the age from 15 to 19 years, namely students and males.
