Life patterns survey. 1980.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/26643780

This study was conducted to survey the experiences and opinions of the Radcliffe College class of 1947, following their 30th reunion. Grace Huffaker, the class chairperson, and staff members at the Murray Research Center collaborated on the project. In the fall of 1979, a 10-page questionnaire was sent to the 228 class members for whom the Alumnae Office had addresses. A second mailing was sent out late in the spring. Completed instruments were received from 82, or 36%, of the women. The questionnaire included some precoded and many open-ended items covering demographic and family background information, educational history, work and volunteer experiences, activities since graduation in 10 year blocks, marriage and family life, children, attitudinal measures, and future plans and aspirations. Raw and computer-accessible data are available at the Murray Center.
