This paper presents an alternative conceptualization of the impact of the family on political socialization. The impact, it is suggested, takes place at a more basic level of psychic organization than attitudes or opinions, namely, basic beliefs. These beliefs originate in the interaction between human needs and attempts to satisfy them in the early family environment. Two basic beliefs, personal control and interpersonal trust, are empirically examined in relation to political orientations. Additionally, the impact of a number of dimensions of family life on the acquisition of these beliefs is explored. These data suggest the potential relevance of personality development to the political socialization process
