Data on the pulse structure and variations of the linear polarization angle at frequencies near 1 GHz have been used to estimate the angles β between the rotational axis and magnetic moment of the neutron stars assocaited with 80 pulsars. The calculations applied several methods. The minimum values of β were estimated from the observed pulse width W 10 at the 10% level for the entire sample. Maximum estimates of β were obtained for six sources with small polarization position angle derivatives. Equations for the angle β were derived for various forms of the observed profile, and solutions obtained for 34 pulsars. The β values calculated using different methods are compared. For three pulsars with known interpulses, the obtained values of β demonstrate that two (PSR B1055-52 and PSR 1822-09) are aligned rotators, whereas the other (PSR B1702-19) is an orthogonal rotator. A search for interpulses and interpulse emission in PSRB1641-45, PSR1642-03, and PSR 1944+17 is necessary, and a search for an interpulse at 180° from the main pulse is required in PSR B2321-61.
