Abstract
This study set out to determine the structure and determinants of people's attitudes towards trade unions in Britain. Over two hundred subjects completed two questionnaires, the first measuring the Protestant work ethic, and the second attitudes towards the unions. Although there were few age, sex, education or trade union membership differences as regards attitudes toward the unions, subjects' beliefs in the Protestant work ethic and voting behaviour were clearly and predictably linked to their attitudes. Factor analysis of the attitude to the union scale revealed a number of interpretable factors. The results are discussed in terms of the psychology of voting and social and political attitudes in general.
