The Psychological Corporation's Index of Public Opinion

Abstract

This, the fourteenth in a series of surveys, involved 5,000 interviews obtained by 479 interviewers in 125 cities and towns. "All interviews were made in the home, but only one in a family. Half were made with women, half with men. The interviews were distributed by four socio-economic groups… . This distribution was made in accordance with the socio-economic maps in each locality according to which the local supervising psychologist assigned the calls to be made by streets and blocks. The great differences between the thinking of these various socio-economic groups are shown in some of the tables." (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
