Several aspects of Rogoff's classic mobility study (1953) which have influenced subsequent research are reviewed. Recently developed loglinear techniques are used to estimate the "densities" associated with intergenerational occupational moves. A structural model derived empirically from Rogoff's data for Marion County, Indiana, from 1910 to 1940, is applied to an intergenerational mobility matrix from a 1973 national sample, accounting for five-sixths of the baseline association. The results confirm the fundamental invariance of mobility trends documented by previous research. Net mobility patterns apparently reflect a mental-manual division among occupations, with the more "traditional" service sectors and farming falling in between, rather than a hierarchical status dimension
