Perceptions of Domestic Abuse Among Mexican American and Anglo American Women
This paper examines the role of culture in shaping perceptions, definitions, and interpretations Mexican American and Anglo American women hold of domestic abuse. Two theoretical views concerning perceptions that Mexican Americans may hold of domestic abuse are discussed. The first view suggests that Mexican American women follow a pluralist model and therefore differ significantly in their perceptions of domestic abuse from Anglo American women.…

The Relationship between Industrialization and White Hostility toward Blacks in Southern Cities
In this article I examine the relationship between industrialization and the exclusion of southern blacks from cities and occupations between 1865 and 1910—an era dubbed by social historians as the New South. I demonstrate that the interaction of such factors as percentage of blacks, percentage of whites, and white racism played an important role in forcing blacks to participate in a secondary labor market. The findings show that ascriptive judgm…
Correlates of Personal Orientation of Youth in Athletics
This paper tests the association of personal orientation and the athletic structure, sex and race. The data presented in this study were obtained from questionnaires administered to 790 students attending public educational institutions in a South Florida county during the spring of 1984. The data demonstrated that there are no significant differences in personal orientation between respondents that participated in the formal athletic structure a…

Effects of Percent Black On Blacks' Perceptions of Relative Power and Social Distance
The Power Approach to Intergroup Hostility
The power approach views intergroup hostility as a natural product of competition among groups for scarce resources. The findings of this study show clear support for the operation of this approach in the area of American race relations. Consistent with the model, whites' racial tolerance and support for government policies favorable toward blacks are found linked to black competition measured by the black concentration in the local context and t…
An Examination of Three Distinct Attitudes among Black Sociologists
Role Relations of Black Sociologists With the Black Community
This article examines sociologists' perceptions of the role relations of black sociologists with the black community. Literature written in the 1960s and 1970s by and about black sociologists suggests they (1) have a coalescent relationship with the black community and (2) want to develop special theoretical and methodological approaches to study black people. However, there are no data showing the extent to which black sociologists agree or disa…
The Jim Braddock-Max Schmeling Affair
The impact of the Jewish boycott of the Jim Braddock-Max Schmeling fight in the latter 1930s is assessed in this paper. The author's interpretation of historical evidence surround ing this event is that the Jewish boycott played only a minor role in the cancellation of this sporting event. It is suggested that the cancellation of this sporting event is better understood in the light of the search for the 'Great White Hope.' This study demonstrate…
Differences in the Recruitment of Black and White Football Players At a Big Eight University
In the United States, collegiate and professional sports are avenues of social mobility for individuals from low-income households and are particularly important for blacks. But mobility of a few minority individuals does not erase the stereotypical image of their group held by the dominant group. When individual members of a minority group acquire positions in the dominant society from which they formerly had been excluded, they re main inferior…
