Abstract
Two-Hundred and eighty families in a rural Peruvian community sample are examined with regard to their organizational solidarity. A Guttman Scale of Family Solidarity is developed and an investigation of the relationship between organizational solidarity of the family and several quality of life measures is carried out. The latter include Guttman scales of current Complexity of House Construction, Household Possessions, and Health Practices, as well as nonscale measures of Language Spoken, Amount of Land Owned and a General Level of Living Score. Medical practices are found to be strongly related to the social solidarity of the family.
