My Own Boss? Class, Rationality, and the Family Farm
Religious Participation and Involvement in Local Politics Throughout the Life Cycle
Recent research has suggested that religious participation is related to perceptions of political efficacy and to voting behavior but not to direct political action. The present analyses extend this line of research to participation in local politics using survey data (N = 1423) from Northwestern Wisconsin collected in 1974. The results of this work suggest that church attendance is related to voting in primary and local elections but not to talk…

Religion, Work Specialization, and Job Satisfaction

Religion and Community-Oriented Attitudes
The relationship between religion and social integration has inspired sociological inquiry since the discipline originated. To address the issue empirically, this paper considers the effects of religious affiliation on two attitudinal measures of social integration. Derived from a survey of 548 non-institutionalized adult residents of Wisconsin, the analyses disclose that respondents without traditional Christian religious affiliations were less …
Life Domain Predictors of Satisfaction with Personal Efficacy
Data from a sample of northwestern Wisconsin residents reveal that satisfaction with personal efficacy is tied to satisfaction with the activity domains of spare time activities, work, family, and spiritual life, with the resource domain of health, and in some cases, of income and education, and with the consumption domain of standard of living. Sex differences in the domain predictors reflect the primacy of work-related factors for men and of fa…

Occupational Satisfaction of Farm Husbands and Wives
Data from a sample of 500 Wisconsin farm families provide only partial support for the hypothesis that husbands and wives derive their primary satisfaction with occupational success from aspirations and attainments in their respective role areas. Farm mechanization and level of living best predict the husband's satisfaction, while gross farm income is the single most important predictor of the wife's satisfaction. Also, among aspiration measures,…
Distance and Intergenerational Ties of Farm Families
The purpose of this paper is the analysis of the interactional patterns of Wisconsin farm couples with their parents. Step-wise multiple regression analysis provides a technique to solve a sequence of one or more multiple linear models by step-wise application of the least sum-of-squares method. The predictor variables used in this analysis include: distance, husband's age, stage in the family life-cycle, husband's education, wife's education, gr…

Toward an Integrated Theory of Development
Toward Further Refinement of the Resource Theory of Family Power
Societal norms are no longer regarded as an adequate explana tion for the relative power of the husband and wife in determining the course of events in the family. Blood and Wolfe have shown that the husband's power in decisions is affected little by religion, age, and rural-urban residence.1 Lupri finds similar results for a German sample except that the rural husbands tend to be more dominant than urban husbands.2 Using cross-national data, Lup…

Dimensions of Aspirations, Work Roles, and Decision-Making of Farm Husbands and Wives in Wisconsin
Dimensions of aspirations, work roles, and decision-making are delineated by the use of factor analysis. The rotated factors indicate that the instrumental-task and decision-making structure of the farm family is multidimensional. Intercorrelations of husband and wife measures indicate that there is a specialization in decision-making as well as in the performance of tasks with joint involvement in certain areas. While there is a consensus upon f…

Joint Decision-Making in Farm Families as a Function of Status and Role
THIS paper has arisen from two interests, one applied and the other theoretical. An assumption of a recent emphasis in cooperative extension work in agriculture and home economics, variously called and home and the and home unit approach, is that effective work in assisting families to make the best use of their resources requires the involvement of both husband and wife. Stated another way, the attainment of both farm and family goals requires j…
