Old People in Three Industrial Societies
Robert and Helen Lynd's Middletown set the format in sociological theory and practice for hundreds of studies in the decades following its publication in 1929. Old People in Three Industrial Societies may well set similar standards for studies in its fi eld for many years to come. In addition to achieving a signifi cant breakthrough in the progress of socio logical research techniques, the book offers a monumental cross-cultural exposition of the…

The Family as a Social Support System in Old Age
The paper reports research findings on two aspects of the family as a social support system: family care for the elderly in time of illness and family visiting patterns. The data come from a 1975 national probability survey of noninstitutionalized persons, 65 years of age and older. The immediate family of the old person is the major social support in time of illness and the extended family of the old person, children, siblings and other relative…

Zero Population Growth and the Family Life of Old People
Discussing the place of the elderly in a technologically advanced society, the authors relate demographic change to social structure and social psychological changes. A series of model population profiles, including one which assumes zero population growth by 2028, are given. The present elderly population and its family characteristics are described, and the situation of the elderly under conditions of zero population growth is considered. It is…

Family-Kin Networks and Aging in Cross-Cultural Perspective
Using national sample data the family composition, living arrangments, and family contacts of persons aged 65 and over in the United States are compared with those of the elderly in Denmark, Britain, Yugoslavia, Poland, and Israel. In every country the right of older people to live separately from adult children is recognized. Nonetheless, a majority of the American elderly with children live either with a child or within ten minutes' distance fr…

The Sociology of Aging and the Aged
Men of my age flock together; we are birds of a feather, as the old proverb says; and at our meetings the tale of my acquaintance commonly is-I cannot eat, I cannot drink; the pleasures of youth and love are fled away: there was a good time once, but now that is gone, and life is no longer life. Some complain of the slights which are put upon them by relations, and they will tell you sadly of how many evils their old age is the cause

The American Journal of Sociology Through Fifty Years
The first number of the American Journal of Sociology appeared in July, 1895. Its purposes, as outlined by its editor, Albion W. Small, were: (1) to build up a fund of social theory, (2) to make sociology a living discipline, (3) to promote the general welfare, and (4) to serve as a restraining influence on "premature" logical opinion. In its fifty years the Journal has published 2,373 articles. During its career the Journal has been a vehicle fo…

Family Help Patterns and Social Class in Three Countries
The present paper is a report of the help patterns among older people and their adult children in three countries-Denmark, Britain, and the United States. The data come from interviews conducted in mid-1962 with nationwide probability samples of approximately 2,500 persons aged 65 and over in each of the three countries. Family help patterns in old age in Denmark, Britain, and the United States differ by the social class position of the older per…

Operational Definitions Operationally Defined
This paper attempts to meet the challenge of defining operational definitions operationally. A definition is operational to the extent that it specifies the procedure for identifying or generating the definiendum and finds high reliability for the definition. The logical form of this definition, its gradational phrasing, the concepts of "procedure" and "reliability," and the two types of operational definitions are commented upon. The importance …
A Note on Restriction of Life Space
Many recent studies of older people have been concerned with the validity of the theory of disengagement. Briefly stated, this theory assumes that disengagement is an inevitable process associated with aging which many of the relationships between a person and other members of society are severed, and those remaining are altered in quality. The theory further assumes that ego energy declines with age, and that as persons age they experience incre…

A Critique of Dodd's Dimensions of Society
The volume, Dimensions of Society, by Stuart C. Dodd is critically examined to determine whether Dodd's claims that he has constructed a quantitative science of sociology are justified. Upon investigation his scheme appears to be arbitrary and sterile. There would seem to be no justification for the belief that the S-theory makes any major contribution to sociology
Economic Differentials in the Probability of Insanity
Data for the city of Chicago were analyzed in an attempt to discover the possible relationship between econoic status and the prevalence of insanity. A higher incidence of insanity was found among the poorer populations than among the richer. Approximately the same differentials were found for each sex and nativity or racial group
