Abstract
Abstract Determinist urban theory and complementary interaction concepts were used to develop two contrasting sets of hypotheses about the relationships between types of social participation. The relationship between extent of interaction and subjective well-being was also predicted from these competing perspectives. Data from 292 men in Los Angeles, California; 234 men in Sydney, Australia; and 226 men in London, England, indicated that formal-association involvement was somewhat positively correlated with kinship. Friendship was positively correlated with kinship. Men who interacted intensively with a variety of others had high well-being. Findings between urban areas did not differ greatly.
