Some correlates of attitudes on the 1956 steel strike

Abstract

Biographical data collected in interviews were correlated with scores on a scale measuring attitudes toward the steel strike, for a sample of 122 strikers. "… individuals most favorable to the strike tended to be married, to have children, to have had past strike experience, and to have had less than two years of high school. Variables not significantly related with strike attitude were opinion on how long the strike would last, buying appliances or automobile on installment, and age of the striker."
