This paper is derived from analysis of part of the data obtained for development of "A Scale to Measure Jointness of Families in India." It is proposed to discuss some of the dimensions of jointness of a sample of 118 Asiatic Indian families of children studying in two schools in Ahmedabad, India. These dimensions are: (1) Jointness in residence, and (2) Jointness in visits. Family types of 118 respondents were classified into "nuclear," "extended," "joint family," and "broken family." Incidence of each of the above four family types among various socio-economic classes and types of relatives living in extended families were considered. Some findings are: (1) Two or more conjugal units reside together in a joint family in about one out of four cases, (2) One or more relatives reside with a conjugal unit in about one out of four cases, (3) About one out of three nonresidential family units is visited once or more per week while about one out of ten and one out of six non-residential units are visited once a fortnight and once a month, respectively, and (4) A significant number out-of-station visits occurred where relatives stay and take meals in one another's households
