Self-Perception of the Husband/Father in the Intact Lower Class Black Family
HE STATUS of the husband/father in the intact lower-class urban black family has been viewed paradoxically in contemporary society. Many people suspect that he is not a permanent member of his family. However, many others, including Billingsley' and Hill and Ackiss,2 are of the opinion that theblack husband/ father's relative permanence and effectiveness in his family account in part for the degree of stability achieved by the black family under …
The status of husband/father as perceived by the wife/mother in the intact lower-class urban black family
Most of the literature on black family life focuses on the problems of female‐headed families and overlooks the fact that the majority of all lower‐class black families have both husband/father as well as wife/mother present. The role of husband/father in the lower‐class black family has been essentially ignored. A sample of black women from intact families living in a predominantly low‐income neighborhood near the city limits of a large southern…
Change in Sexual Attitudes and Behavior of College Students from 1965 to 1980: A Research Note
This study is a third quintennial replication of Robinson et al.'s 1965 survey of premarital behavior and attitudes among college students. This study shows that: (1) there is a continued but asymptotic increase in reported premarital behavior among both men and women; (2) there are fewer differences in attitudes and behavior between men and women; and (3) some students have replaced the traditional double standard with a double standard. The new…
Empiricism, Symbolic Realism, and the Mystique of the Extreme
The empiricist/symbolic realist debate in the sociology of religion, as well as the broader objectivist/subjectivist controversy in social science, suffers from the mystique of the extreme. Emphasis has been placed on the two approaches as opposing alternatives, an either-or choice. This paper suggests that the mystique of the extreme prohibits perception of the necessary, dialectical complementarity of the two approaches. Neither alone can succe…
Meaning and Behavior: An Empirical Study in Sociolinguistics
meanings or concrete meanings change more readily in response to behavioral changes than do abstract meanings-or both
A Synthesis Of Two Social Psychologies
Sociological social psychology (symbolic interactionism) and psychological social psychology (cognitive social psychology) both are rooted in German phenomenology, yet the two have proceeded in different directions. Sociological social psychology is largely an abstract and qualitative enterprise, while psychological social psychology is largely an empirical and quantitative body of work. The reluctance of either social psychology to span the full…
The Continuing Premarital Sexual Revolution among College Females
Multidimensional Scaling of Men's First Names: A Sociolinguistic Approach
Fichter's Typology and Changing Meanings in the Catholic Church
Change is viewed as a process of evolving meanings. Fichter's 1954 typology of Roman Catholic parishioners is examined in light of this view. Data were collected in a non-traditional Roman Catholic parish, after the changes brought about by the Second Vatican Council. The typological criteria which Fichter found to clearly distinguish parishioners in stable, traditional parishes are now found to be confused, or even reversed in some cases. Thus i…
The Premarital Sexual Revolution among College Females
A survey of 395 college students in a southern university was conducted to ascertain the extent of change in sexual behavior and attitudes from data gathered five years ago. The major changes in reported incidence of premarital coitus and petting were manifested by females with males remaining approximately the same as the previous study. Attitudes toward certain aspects of sexual behavior were reported by the females to be more liberal while the…
Nursing Home Resources and Rural and Urban Needs
The findings from a study of a sample of 148 nursing care homes in the state of Georgia suggest, contrary to expectations, that nursing care homes have more adequate personnel and facilities in rural than in urban areas. This finding is explained by the fact that more medical care nursing homes are owned by medical doctors and are more likely to be located in rural rather than urban areas. It is suggested that a reciprocally satisfactory arrangem…

Sex attitudes and the fear of venereal disease among college students
Several codes, either promiscuity or abstinence, are clearly linked with the veneral disease rate. At the present time, there are certain changes occurring in the moral code of our society. The typical attitude toward sexual behavior in America has been puritanical and derived from the Victorian concept of sexuality so closely linked to the rise of industrialism and urbanism. Under these conditions, sexual behavior was a public as well as a priva…

Change in Sexual Behavior and Attitudes of College Students
A survey of 244 college students in a Southern university was conducted to ascertain the extent of change in sexual behavior and attitudes from data reported by Kinsey in 1948. No major changes in reported incidence of premarital coitus or petting were found. Attitudes toward certain aspects of sexual behavior were changed in the direction of placing responsibility on the individual rather than on the community and a large number considering prom…
