The Bulgarian Longitudinal Inclusive Society Survey (BLISS) was conducted in March and May 2013 by Open Society Institute-Sofia and the World Bank. This survey is a continuation of the panel Crisis Monitoring Survey (CMS), with an additional module on the cognitive and socio-emotional skills of the adult population in Bulgaria. 

The main purpose of BLISS is to analyze the major barriers to activation (such as skills gaps and mismatches, informational asymmetries, and/or disincentives inherent in the tax-benefit schemes) for different groups (such as women, older workers, and Roma) through an understanding of the labor markets' behavior. The BLISS was conducted using the same panel of households as the CMS for the main sample and the "booster" (Roma) sample. BLISS is treated as an additional round of CMS in the longitudinal analysis, as well as a cross-sectional survey.
