Those weren't "referendums", those where "enquirys" which is not the same. The result of an "enquiry" has no legal obligations, for example, in the first enquiry, independentist won by far (81%), but there was no independence. It some way of knowing what people/society thinks about an issue. As I said in my previous comment, there haven`t been any referendums about independence in Spain (I live in Spain so I think I know about what I'm talking), basically because the spanish goverment doesn't want to, and on the other hand, the so called "rigth to choose or decide" with a referendum is one of the things Catalonians (and also Basks) want.
