Margins of The Mind
‘Psychologists have mapped out developmental stages for the first fifteen to twenty years; but thereafter life is a blank. Half a century of adult life remains, psychologically speaking, an unchartered waste.’ Frank Musgrove focuses on the question ‘Can adults change?’ and challenges the still widely-held view that adult life is static. Originally published in 1977, the author examines change principally in terms of a modification of consciousnes…

Rites of Passage and the Meaning of Age in Three Contrasted Social Groups
Interviews were carried out with professional footballers in their twenties, superannuated Methodist ministers in their seventies, and teachers in their thirties who were taking part-time higher degrees, to discover what they saw as the significant stages, turning points or landmarks in their lives and the way they saw age differences influencing their social relationships. Nobody thought that adolescence had been a stage or turning point, althou…
Ecstasy and Holiness
Deals with the counter culture which emerged in the wealthy societies of the late 1960s and early 1970s, often disguised by the rejection of conventional careers and the acceptance of voluntary poverty in the context of plenty. The period witnessed radical change in young people's attitudes
A Home for the Disabled
The participant-observer study of a Cheshire Home which is described in this article was intended to bring some fieldwork evidence to bear on currently popular speculations in the field of the sociology of knowledge. These speculations are best known through the writing of Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann, which draws heavily on the work of Alfred Schutz. The reality of everyday life, it is said, is massively taken for granted and presents itself…

Aspects of the Swing From Science
S ummary . An investigation of the present and former career choices of 338 students entering the University of Bradford in 1967 indicated that students of science and engineering had made earlier and mores table decisions than students of social science about their present career intentions. Almost a half of the students of social science had wanted a science‐based career at some stage of their school lives. A half of these had swung away from s…

The Social Needs and Satisfactions of Some Young People
S ummary . Questionnaires completed by 367 young people between 14 and 20 in the industrial North, indicated the range and nature of the needs which they thought should be met by home, school, club and work, respectively, and the needs which they thought were, in fact, met. Two‐hundred‐and‐fifty subjects were members of mixed youth clubs (fifty were at work, 200 at school). Their responses on a sentence‐completion test were compared with the resp…

Teachers' and Parents' Conception of the Teacher's Role
S ummary . An inquiry was carried out among 470 teachers in grammar, modern, junior and infant schools to establish how widely or narrowly they conceived their role and what elements they gave greatest weight to within it. Grammar school teachers had a more constricted view of their role than their modern school colleagues, and junior school teachers working in middle‐class areas than their colleagues in working class districts. Married women jun…

A Uganda Secondary School as a Field of Culture Change
Opening ParagraphI Propose to examine the Uganda secondary boys' boarding-school, in which I teach, as an institution in culture contact; to consider how far its function must be interpreted in terms of its own dynamism and how far in terms of the parent cultures of the Black and White members of the community. The interpretation I make from data gained chiefly within the school is necessarily incomplete, and a complementary study by a field anth…

Opening ParagraphThe culture concept carries many implications for the educationist which have still to be worked out. Perhaps its greatest value will prove to lie in providing a corrective to the intellectualist fallacy to which teachers and educationists are singularly prone. By taking into account the complex and largely non-intellectual processes of acculturation, the teacher in Africa will realize that he is unlikely to effect a direct trans…

Some reflections on the sociology of African education
SYNOPSIS The author examines the theory of social change through the influence of an educated, creative minority, and, from his investigations of relationships between schoolboys and their families in Uganda, concludes that the educated few are in fact being imitated and causing social change along a broad front. His evidence leads him to the conclusion that new skills are more easily acquired when they have no direct counterpart in the tribal si…
Teaching geography to the peoples of Western Uganda
SYNOPSIS The author has distinguished two major teaching problems, the first to prevent the geographical information given from being deployed to support traditional, unscientific ideas; the second, to make the new knowledge effectively displace old myths. He has attempted to measure the effectiveness of his teaching by first investigating the field of ideas to which pupils are referring the classroom instruction, in particular the beliefs of Ban…

Role‐conflict in Adolescence
S ummary . The role‐conflicts of a group of adolescents (and pre‐adolescents) were assessed by asking the subjects to indicate how they would behave ideally, how they thought they in fact behaved, and how they thought various adult authorities and their friends expected them to behave. This was done by ranking various areas of conduct as they themselves, and in their view the adults and friends, evaluated them in their behaviour. The extent of di…
