The investigator participated in the life of a rural Canadian community for some months. Through interviews and casual conversations, it was possible to observe and record how people's attitude toward England's chances of surviving, their criticism of England and Canada, their skepticism concerning news reports, and their anxiety about the war varied as a function of their society, their culture, their perceptions, and certain personality differences. Closer acquaintance with specific individuals than was obtained in this study might reveal subtler and more significant departures from the accepted societal, cultural, and perceptual norms.
