Sociale stratificatie en maatschappelijke orientaties

Samenvatting

An investigation of the relationship between social stratification & values. Lower SCs have been characterized by a conformistic orientation, while the higher ones are said to value self-direction. The linear additive model that is basic to most analyses of SS & mobility effects is criticized, & some alternatives are suggested; tests of these alternatives show no significant improvement, however. It is concluded that a model more oriented to the individual can best demonstrate the effect of educational level & SS on personal values. 3 Tables, 3 Figures, 23 References. Modified HA
