  • Temporal Stability and Change in Attitudes toward the Kennedy Assassination

    Open AccessJohn Pierce-Jones, John Pierce‐Jones et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1969

    Temporal distance from a catastrophic social event, e.g., the killing of President John Kennedy, might be expected to result in a de-differentiation (simplification) of the configuration of attitudes surrounding the event. In a factor-analytic sense, this would be seen through the identification of fewer attitude dimensions a year after the killing and after the original study. Present results disconfirm the simplification hypothesis, showing ins…

  • Adolescent Racial and Ethnic Group Differences in Social Attitudes and Adjustment

    Open AccessJohn Pierce-Jones, John Pierce‐Jones et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1959

    There is an evident hiatus in our knowledge of differences between racially identified groups with respect to personality and Tyler ( 5 ) has pointed to considerable sampling difficulties involved in research in this realm, and has said that the few studies using questionnaire or projective methods . . . have shown no clear trends, [although] there may be interesting questions in this area.

    mine the exact relationship. Ethnic origin of the parents likewise plays an important role. The weaknesses of our study are many and obvious. As we have pointed out, the sample is not random nor proportional; the postulates underlying the analysis are debatable, etc. Our conclusions must be accepted with all caution and we have raised more problems than we have solved. Although our findings largely confirm previous studies, certain revisions of t…
