> I asked whether the people of Russia are any better off now than before the Soviet Union.

I can not answer like a researcher but I can comment from the personal experience in ex Czechoslovakia.
It is clear that it is not your requested well-research study but I want to say it (emotionally).

At the Soviet Union times the personal responsibility and rights were almost none.
It was given what is future of a man by authorities with smaller space for personal decisions then we have now.
Like: What/where to study, what/where to live, what/where to travel, what/where to work, etc
You had a space for decision but quite often too small to be significant.

But it is easy to imagine that for lot of people the personal responsibility doesn't taste like a cake.
I think the system at Soviet Union (including Czechoslovakia) didn't have any good "optimization functions" for reducing misbehaving individuals within the society. The society was in dysfunction and crashed.
You can find the details about the circumstances of these times.

Asking if the people are better now is like an asking that question junkie at start of his treatment.
Not everything is better now but at least it is much more sustainable: individuals with responsibilities.
Can something else work in long term (Short term solutions are not always safe one) ?
I don't know but the regime within Soviet Union has not been proven to be right one regardless study if people are now happy or not.

PS: Sorry for English. I'm not really very good in it (We could not learn English in schools...only Russian and German languages).
