Abstract

FROM THE EDITORAt the outset of this issue I would like to announce some novelties in the journal, with respect to its issuing and editing. First, from this issue on, Statistics in Transition new series (SiTns) will be printed four times a year, just becoming a regular quarterly journal. This will give us an opportunity to be more responsive to systematically growing number of submitted papers, and to earn an extra point in certain indexation bases. Currently, in addition to several bases monitoring our publications, we are under consideration by SCOPUS. The second announcement is about preparing the journal's special issue, envisaged as a thematic collection of articles devoted to the subjective well-being, with preference given to papers presenting current research on this topic in public (government) statistics. In view of the fact that arranging for such a thematic collection of articles is a challenging task we have invited Prof. Graham Kalton (who also inspired us with this idea) to act as a Guest (co)Editor of such a topical collection of papers. The formal call for papers will be published in the next issue (scheduled for July).
