Madrid, October 24, 2023 This book presents the results of the analysis of the data collected in the survey module carried out by the CIS with the title Biographies of Emancipation, Generations and Social Change in Spain. This module was designed to collect retrospective information with the aim of studying life trajectories in youth, starting from the generations of men and women aged 18 and over, placing special interest in the emancipation process. All this, in a context of limited generational data on youth and their emancipation processes. Emancipation has been considered in this study as a sum of processes that involve different dimensions, among which the departure or departures from the parental home are one more event within a complex "path." The results obtained confirm empirical evidence found in other studies and account for also novel aspects. The study also covers a wide range of generations, very different from each other, who have undergone profound social changes in their trajectories towards adulthood. This places us in a new context from which to resume the debate on emancipation in Spain. It should be noted that the most important changes are concentrated between the generations born until 1959 and those born after. The youth transitions of the most recent generations show a clear trend towards greater complexity, with a greater presence of non-linear and reversible paths. At the same time, we have found evidence that the trajectories of older generations were not as linear as previous studies have suggested. This work also provides solid evidence that it is women who have led the most notable changes. Among them, the changes that have occurred between the oldest and youngest generations are much greater than among men.

Trajectories 8 Author: Mª Ángeles Durán When he accepted the invitation to write his intellectual autobiography, he did not imagine it would be so difficult. Self-censorship has cost him interruptions, barriers that he was not able to cross. How far does the right to speak about oneself and others go? Alone with his own memory, he has relived moments of anguish and splendor. He received his first notions of the world through stories and prayers; His youth was marked by the death of his father and his incorporation into a University that was boiling with desire for change; She later assumed the purpose of renewing science, opening a space for women in all fields of knowledge; has known the gall and honey of academic life; He fondly remembers his intellectual and emotional bridges with colleagues and institutions in Europe, the United States and Latin America. The story closes with the fatigue of the passage of time and a nod to hope; If the extension were lenient, how would he live the rest of his life? Accompanies the autobiography with a selection of publications on inequality, the social situation of women, unpaid work, urban planning, the renewal of science and care. They are only a small portion of his work, but they invite the reader to continue on their own. María Ángeles Durán received the National Prize for Sociology and Political Science in 2018, an award granted by the Center for Sociological Research as "recognition of an outstanding scientific career in the field of sociology."

The Sociological Research Center has carried out the third wave of the Health barometer in agreement with the Ministry of Health, in which it asks about the degree of satisfaction with the public health system and what aspects work or they believe can be improved. Spaniards value the public health system positively and it continues to be the first option over the private system. 57.5% assure that the health system works quite well, although changes are necessary, while 15% affirm that “it works poorly and needs profound changes.” When rating the health system from 1 to 10, with 10 being “very satisfied” and 1 being “very dissatisfied” – Spaniards give public health an average of 6.24. The public health system continues to be the first option 71% of Spaniards have stated that they prefer consultations with their family doctors and pediatricians in public healthcare, compared to 26.2% who have stated that in private centers. Similar figures when it comes to hospital admissions, 75.4% choose public hospitals and 20.5% private hospitals. When we talk about consultations with specialists, the data are equal, since 39.7% have stated that they prefer private centers, compared to 56.8% who prefer public centers. 21.1% have indicated that they have private insurance because they or a member of their family has contracted it, and of those who have insurance, the majority assure that they have done so because of the speed with which they are treated (76.5%). . Assessment of public health services The '061' and '112' emergencies are the best rated services (7.44 out of 10) as is usual in this barometer, in second position is “admission and care in public hospitals” with a 7.27 and the “Primary care consultations in GP health centers” in third place with 6.41. Specialist consultations are the least valued, but achieve a 6 out of 10. Regarding waiting lists, 70% of Spaniards who have required an appointment with their family doctor during the last 12 months have waited more than a day to be seen “because there was no appointment before”, only 9.6% He has assured that he was attended to on the same day. In addition, of those who had to wait more than a day to be seen, 58.1% waited more than a week.   Primary care consultations Nursing staff and the trust they convey continue to be the highest-rated service in primary care with a 7.89 out of 10, followed by medical staff and the trust and security they provide with a 7.77. In third position, patients positively value the information they receive about their health problems (7.42) and the knowledge and monitoring of health problems from primary care centers achieves a 7.20. The worst rated, although it almost achieved a notable score, is “the time dedicated by the medical staff to each patient” with a 6.86. 80.9% of those who have had a consultation with their primary care physicians in the last year have stated that the care they have received has been “very good or good.” Only 4.3% have indicated that it has been “bad or very bad.” Furthermore, 61.7% of people who have had a health problem during the last 12 months and have needed to talk to their doctor have been able to do so, but 10.7% have stated that they have not been able to when they have needed to. . Of those who have not been able to do so, 31.9% is because “they gave him an appointment for many days later and he ended up going to the emergency room”, and 22.2% “they gave him an appointment for days later and the consultation was no longer necessary ”. 10% ended up in private consultation because they gave them an appointment for many days later. Via telephone 32.2% of Spaniards have stated that all consultations with the doctor should be in person, while 65.5% have indicated that "some of the consultations can be done by telephone and others should be in person", and only 1.5% responded that they could all be done by phone. Patients who have been seen by telephone during the last twelve months believe that it is more comfortable for the doctor (71.3%), but 55.2% have indicated that it is not as comfortable to be able to explain themselves as in a face-to-face consultation. . And 59.2% of patients have assured that they understand the doctor's instructions as well as in the face-to-face consultation.
