Training Environments, Work Attitudes, and Turnover Intention
A recent and extensive review of research concluded that worker age-viewed both chronologically and in terms of career stage-was a decisive determinant of work attitudes including turnover intention, i.e., intention to remain in an occupation or to leave it. This paper reports a study of work attitudes among 732 American, British, and Spanish students undergoing training as merchant marine engineering officers. All were of the same age and were a…

Socialization for Occupational Disengagement: Vocational Education in the Merchant Marine
This is a study of occupational disengagement among students in American, British, and Spanish merchant marine academies. Disengagement is shown to be a function of two attributes of training. The first involves the content of training in the sense that students acquire a more realistic and less romantic view of their future career once they are faced with training experiences which simulate the actual work situation. The second attribute concern…

A “Nutcracker” Theory of Modern Organizations: A Conflict View
This paper presents a point of view toward formal organizations which departs from the equilibrium models contained on both bureaucratic and open system theory. Specifically, a conflict perspective is taken in terms of which organization disequilibrium is understood to be typical of organizations as a consequence of their being continually subject to the threat of withdrawal of monetary and non-monetary supports from both internal members and ext…

Organizational Age, Structure, and Orientations Toward Clients
This study of 76 psychiatric hospitals suggests that organizations may change over time in several ways. In these cases, the administrative component became larger with age. In addition, the divisions of labor became more specialized. Third, the operational staffs became less professionalized over time. More important, however, the young hospitals expressed a broad but short-term (plus-lateral—minus-longitudinal) orientation toward their clients,…

Role Theory and Illness: A Sociological Perspective
Organizations and Clients: Lateral and Longitudinal Dimensions
This paper presents a perspective for the analysis of formal organizations which views the relationships between clients and organizations as critical determinants in the structure and functioning of such systems. The reasons which prompt this effort derive from three major sources: (1) the phenomenal growth of organizations which cater to a wide range of human needs may require a theoretical perspective suited to the special contingencies engend…
The Sick Role During Pregnancy: A Note on Research in Progress
Social Stability and Psychological Adjustment During Pregnancy
Thirty pregnant women, referred by obstetricians in private practice, were seen for a sociological interview and were administered a battery of psychological assessment procedures. Women who were dissatisfied with their social status and were otherwise socially unstable were found to be generally less happy, less happy to be pregnant, more anxious, higher on the personality syndrome of alienation, and more emotionally maladjusted

Social Sources of Pregnancy as Illness or Normality
Expectant mothers who manifested high degrees of social-personal instability tended to regard themselves as more “sick” during pregnancy than did socially more stable women. Motivations to enact a sick role during pregnancy are viewed in relation to objective social status, dissatisfactions with current round of life, and with both upward and downward mobility
Institutional Types and Sociological Research: An Hypothesis in Role Systems and Research Models
One of the most pronounced trends during the present generation of social scientists has been the exodus of members of the disciplines—particularly sociologists—away from the campus and into other institutional settings. Some have gone to assume service functions in government, in public relations, in general and psychiatric hospitals, in the military, and so forth. More frequently, perhaps, the academic cloak has been retained and they have depa…

The Self in the Emotionally Disturbed
Some key principles of Mead's psychology of the self are demostrated with a group of institutionalized child psychiatric patients as subjects. On two separate responses one year apart, changes were shown in how the subjects defined themselves, how they defined others, and how they thought others defined them. The patterns on these three dimensions were, on the second testing, more nearly what might be anticipated on the basis of Mead's theory, as…
