The field work was supported by a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health to the senior author. Further support has been provided by the Human Ecology Fund, permitting us to systematize the data upon our return from the field. We would also like to thank the Government of Fiji for making their demographic records available to us, and Dr. Lindsay Verrier for introducing us to the research possibilities provided by such information. An earlier draft of the paper was read by Ralph Bulmer, Jeremy Beckett, Douglas Yamamura and Thomas Maretzki, each of whom have made valuable criticisms. The responsibility for the paper is entirely our own, however.
