The research focuses on the narrower topic of attitudes toward economic justice. Specifically, it focuses on the contributions of both religiosity and religious affiliation to such attitudes. The contributions of the religious components are ass…

Religion, Modernization, and Utilization of Western Health Care
A strong tradition in sociology argues that the seeds of secularization and rational outlook have long been present in Christianity per se. Presented in this paper are cross-national research findings from a 136 nation sample that the proportion of Christians in a society is positively associated with that society's degree of modernization; and that modernization in turn, leads to a tendency to practise and utilize Western scientific medicine. Th…

This paper presents findings from a tri-cultural study in which we argue that class differences pertain not only to rates of mental illness but also to recognition of symptoms of mental illness and to recommendations concerning what should be done by those exhibiting 'disordered behaviour'. It is hypothesized that regardless of respondent's cultural background, the extent to which a deviant behaviour will be defined as a mental health problem, an…

Socioeconomic class, classification of 'abnormal' behavior and perceptions of mental health care
The oft-cited relationship between socioeconomic status and rates of mental illness was investigated in terms of lower-class perceptions of certain'disordered'behaviors and the sources of help, if any, thought relevant to these behaviors. It was hypothesised that certain types of behavior and perceptions of the environment which might be abnormal in middle-class society are perceived as quite normal in the lower-class world, and that lower-class …

Factors Affecting Social Workers' Judgments of Alcoholics
This study focuses on factors affecting social workers' judgments of the alcoholic. The four behavioral assumptions of Parsons' construct of the sick role are used to measure acceptance of the alcoholic as a legitimate incumbent of that role. It was hypothesized that social worker judgments would be influenced by characteristics of the individual. A sample of all social workers in a Midwestern urban area was studied by means of a questionnaire. A…

This paper is a replication of a study in which we argue that class differences pertain not only to rates of mental illness but also to the recognition of symptoms of mental illness and to recommendations concerning what should be done by those exhibiting ‘disordered behaviour’. Our previous findings from a sample of two small West Texas communities indicated that class differences did hold for both recognition of and recommendations for help reg…

The Stable Poor and Criticism of Poverty Area Agencies
International and cross-cultural research concerning populations living in poverty have uncovered similarities in attitudes and behaviors associated with participation in society's institutional systems. One of these similarities is that feelings of alienation are an inevitable "reaction of the poor to their marginal position in a class-stratified, highly individuated, capitalistic society" (Lewis, 1966:21). These feelings, in turn, have led poor…
The Transition to Medicalized Views
More deviant behaviors in our society are coming to be defined as medical rather than criminal, so that more control of such behavior is coming under medical and helping professions. Some conditions, e.g., alcoholism, seem to be caught "in between," with serious consequences. This paper looks at social worker perception of the alcoholic as "sick," in terms of a sociological conception of sickness as a social role. A bi-mdal distribution is found …
