Joint Decision-Making in Farm Families as a Function of Status and Role

THIS paper has arisen from two interests, one applied and the other theoretical. An assumption of a recent emphasis in cooperative extension work in agriculture and home economics, variously called and home and the and home unit approach, is that effective work in assisting families to make the best use of their resources requires the involvement of both husband and wife. Stated another way, the attainment of both farm and family goals requires joint discussion and consensus on the part of husband and wife. From a theoretical point of view this paper utilizes the concepts of status and role to explain the extent of joint involvement of husband and wife under varying conditions of size of farm business, indebtedness, and level of living. Students of the family have attempted to show how participation in decision-making is a function of cultural values and social structure.' The general notion is that the wife's participation in major decisions concerning the family is associated with the extent of patriarchalism in the family and the status of the wife. With greater emphasis upon democratic values and with increased education and social contacts of the wife, her status in the family becomes more comparable with that of the husband. Based upon this reasoning one would expect husband-dominated decision-making to be negatively associated with the adoption of technological changes on the farm and in the home. No significant associations were found between husband-dominated decisions and adoption of improved farm practices, however, in a study among farm owners in Wisconsin.2 On the other hand, Hill and associates show that communication between husband and wife is affected by the wife's feeling of respect for the husband and by her modesty, and that the extent of communication is positively associated with the acceptance of birth control measures among Puerto Rican families.3 Due to the inconsistencies of empirical findings with the implications of certain theoretical notions, two alternative hypotheses were tested. Stated in null form these are: Hypothesis 1: Joint involvement of husband and wife in major decisions is not associated with the social status of the wife as indicated by educational level and formal social participation. Hypothesis 2: The greater the degree of * revision of a paper presented at a joint session of the Rural Sociological Society and the American Sociological Society, Washington, D. C., August, 1957. Data for the paper were obtained as a part of a study of the evaluation of a farm and home development extension program for young farm families supported by the Cooperative Extension Service in Agriculture and Home Economics and by the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. The Numerical Analysis Laboratory provided assistance in computations for the study. Nancy Wood, Project Assistant, assisted in the techniques of analysis. 1 James S.

Age at Puberty of Gilts Produced by Different Systems of Mating

Observations were made during four years on the age at puberty in gilts in the swine breeding experimental herd maintained by the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperation with the Regional Swine Breeding Laboratory. The numbers of gilts used were, in 1950, 150; 1951, 106; 1952, 95; 1954, 162. The mean age at puberty of the inbred gilts in 1950 was 227.7 days. They were significantly older at puberty than the line-cross gilts (193.5 days). The mean ages at puberty for the gilts representing the four systems of mating in 1951 (inbred, 244.0; two-line cross, 214.5; three-line cross, 198.4; four-line cross, 208.2) differed only in respect to inbreeding and line crossing, with no significant difference between the different line crosses. Inbreeding of a gilt was shown to have a significant effect on the age at which she reached puberty. The effect of inbreeding of the dam was not shown to have a significant effect on the age at puberty of her off-spring. Significant differences were found between the inbred and line-cross gilts when classified into 154-day-weight classes to remove much of the effect of differences in growth rate. The 1952 studies indicated a significant difference between purebreds and crossbreds. Differences between different line crosses were non-significant, as they were in 1951. Differences in age at puberty in 1954 were found between mating types within the purebred and crossbred systems of mating as well as between the two systems. Differences shown between the average age at puberty of the reciprocal crosses between two breeds and the average age at puberty of their purebred parents suggest non-additive inheritance.

DIFFERENCES IN SPECIFICITY OF THE ANTIGENIC PRODUCTS OF A SERIES OF ALLELES IN THE CHICKEN

The purpose of the present study was to investigate further the inheritance of the agglutinability of chicken erythrocytes with normal bovine serum and to determine the genetic relationships of such agglutinogens with those then known to exist in the chicken (BRILES, MCGIBBON and IRWIN 1950). MATERIALS AND METHODS The,chickens used in this study were from a group maintained by the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station for the study of cellular antigens. They were second and third generation crosses of birds derived from Rhode Island Reds, Single Comb White Leghorns and Barred Plymouth Rocks. Blood was taken from the chickens by making a small cut in a wing vein and allowing the blood to run into tubes containing an isotonic solution of sodium citrate (2.00 percent) and sodium chloride (0.42 percent). The cells were washed three times with saline solution (0.75 percent sodium chloride) before they were tested. The bovine sera were obtained from blood taken from the jugular vein. These sera and the chicken isoimmune reagents employed in this study were stored at - 18 to - 23°C. The normal bovine sera were inactivated for 20 minutes at 56°C in a water bath before they were used in testing cells for agglutination. Three different bovine sera were tested in serial dilutions (1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 4, 1 : 8, etc.) against erythrocytes of the various chickens. It was found that the sera were alike
