When Was Rosalie Rayner Born
A search by James B. Watson for definitive proof of his mother's date of birth ultimately proved fruitless, although one piece of evidence he discovered strongly suggests that Rosalie Rayner was born in 1899, not 1898 as some sources indicate. Watson believes that his father, John Broadus Watson, wrote his 1936 autobiographical essay before Rayner's death because afterward he was too devastated to have written it

Pigs, Fodder, and the Jones Effect in Postipomoean New Guinea
The use of the sweet potato as fodder, a central factor in recent changes in the human ecology of the Central Highlands of New Guinea (CHNG), supported a substantial increase of the previously small pig herd. With this modification of adaptive strategies came new uses of the regional habitat and new social arrangements. Among probable motives for the change were environmental stress, dietary advantage, and conscious intergroup competition. Interg…
Socio-Ecological Change Among the Fore of New Guinea [and Comments and Replies]
Historical reconstruction based on contemporary evidence shows that adoption of the sweet potato by the Fore approximately a century ago set in motion a series of events that transformed their institutions and natural surroundings. As the consequences of this act unraveled, the Fore moved to virgin lands, their population increased, the character of the living space they occupied was altered, and they were confronted with new kinds of social and …

General
Society as Organized Flow
Of roughly twenty years' standing, the analysis of Central Highland New Guinea social systems remains inconclusive. Problematical features basic to these (and perhaps other) social systems have received descriptive cachets like "looseness," "openness," and "flexibility," suggestive of regional peculiarity--even anomaly--but bereft of explanatory value. The significance of intermittent, major realignment of local groups through migration tends to …

Why Exceptions? The Logic of Cross-Cultural Analysis [and Comments and Reply]
This paper discusses the factors causing exceptions to rules in the social sciences in general and in social anthropology in particular. Exceptions may occur through defective classification by ethnologists. For example, the ethnologist may define the phenomena under consideration poorly. The importance of using operational definitions must therefore be stressed. He may class phenomena in the same category without making sure that their frequency…

Tairora
Traditional leadership in the Tairora area of the Eastern Highlands is discussed with specific reference to one strong man whose reputation is well and widely established in recent tradition. Local reports of his career are examined from various angles, in relation to: socio‐cultural context, including the place of a strong man in a moral system with an egalitarian emphasis; historicity and validity; and the nature, conditions, and limitations of…
