Natural science, functionalism, and psychology at the University of New Mexico, 1889-1964
The Psychology Department at the University of New Mexico began as a normal department. It was indelibly influenced to be a part of the natural science grouping in the university's liberal arts college by a strong second president, Clarence L. Herrick, himself a comparative neurologist and geologist. However, some change was effected by the influence of Functionalism and World War I. Over the years psychology suffered from pressures of underfundi…
A Children's Hispanic Background Scale
A 10-minute Children's Hispanic Background Scale, useful in identifving Hispanic acculturation level, is described. The 30-item scale assessed Spanish usage by the subject and significant others (23 items), food preference (2 itemns), and general cultural exposure (5 items). Ss were 92 Chicano fourth-grade children. Test-retest reliability was .92, p < .001; validity rs were .50, p < .01, with a school bilingual scale and .58, p < .001, with SES.…
Effects of Acculturation on Field Independence among Chicano Children
Chicano and Anglo fourth-grade children were categorized into three acculturation levels and contrasted on two tests of field independence. It was predicted that an interaction should occur between level of acculturation and intrinsic versus extrinsic reinforcement on the contention that Chicano socialization, resulting supposedly in field dependence, would produce differential reinforcement effects. No relationship occurred between level of accu…
Social Class and Ethnicity Effects on Clinical Judgments
To resolve conflict between earlier studies finding contradictory recommendations on need for professional help of middle- vs lower-class persons given normal, neurotic, and psychotic behavior descriptions, and to explore ethnicity effects, 92 students (70 Anglo, 22 Chicano) rated fictitious biographical vignettes. A pro-middle-class bias was found consistent with Routh and King's study but inconsistent with that by Schofield and Oakes. Also cont…
Ideology and Primary Group Membership Influences on Voting Behavior: A Reply to Goldberg
Goldberg (1967) implies in the title of his critique that Zippel and Norman (1966) were postulating that primary group membership rather than ideology determines political choices. This is noc quire correct. The argument presented by Zippel and Norman was thar most voters make their decisions according to the influence of their social environment but that some voters, a small minority, do place ideological considerations above past primary group …
Party Switching, Authoritarianism, and Dogmatism in the 1964 Election
Postulating that primary group identification is stronger than ideology, it was predicted that there would be no differences on the California F Scale or the Rokeach Dogmatism Scale between supporters of Goldwater and Johnson or a great amount of party switching and that those who switched would have higher mean scores on both scales than those who did not switch on the grounds that ideology must be intense to overcome primary group loyalty. All …

A Review of Some Problems Related to the Mail Questionnaire Technique
IN all probability, more studies have been made with the questionnaire than with any other instrument in the field of social investigation. Wide application of this research tool oc-curs in sociology, education, psychology, economics, politics, public opinion measurement, and other areas of social science. This article will attempt to survey some of the more recent literature concerning only the mail questionnaire, discussing problems peculiar to…
