Abstract
The effects of urbanization on Aboriginal attitude change and unresolved attitudinal conflict were studied using 3 Aboriginal samples selected for varying degrees of exposure to modern influences. These were a semi-traditional Arunta sample, a semi-modern Wallaga Lake sample, and a modem Sydney sample. The study was carried out in terms of T-W consistency theory. An Aboriginal version of the T-W Scale was developed to test the main hypotheses which were generally confirmed. One of the main conclusions drawn was that the extremely permissive Aboriginal socialization process and lack of political stratification has tended to limit the degree of acceptance of modern attitudes and values and may also tend to influence levels of achievement motivation.
