A comparison of cross-generational attitudes about filial obligations. 1982.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/26630137

The purpose of this 1982 study was to assess the attitudes of students and their parents about the rights and obligations of the middle generation toward their children and toward their own parents. A total of 483 high school and college students and one parent or older relative (mostly mothers) completed a six-page, precoded questionnaire. The sample was selected to represent a range of ethnic, economic, and social class backgrounds. The questionnaire solicited information about attitudes toward supporting elderly parents, political philosophy, abortion and sexual relationships, government spending, religious beliefs, relationship with mother when young, and demographic background. Participants from both cohorts completed identical questionnaires. The Murray Center has acquired the original questionnaires for 200 subjects, computer-accessible data for all subjects, and an accompanying codebook.
