Abstract

A comparison of scores on five scales of social and political values taken by Columbia College students and their parents indicates that (1) there are highly significant differences between parents and sons, with the latter being much more radical in ideology, and (2) patterns of correlation between parents and children are low. Lucy N. Friedman is a Research Director at the Vera Institute of Justice in New York City; Alice R. Gold is Assistant Professor of Psychology at Wesleyan University; and Richard Christie is Professor of Social Psychology at Columbia University.
