Abstract

Rosen's achievement values scale and Srole's anomie scale were administered to adult women residents of a low-income family housing project. The data analysis indicated that religion was an antecedent condition for achievement values only, with Catholics characterized by higher achievement values than Protestants, and that education was an antecedent condition for both achievement values and anomie, with those possessing a post-high school education characterized by higher achievement values and lower anomie than those possessing no more than a high school diploma. Income was not related to either scale. The data also indicated that in general no intrinsic relationship exists between anomie and achievement values.
