About This Item
721-746 pages with tables, figures and cited references. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Volume 63, number 4. First edition.
The interpretation of Ojibwa acculturation presented here is an attempt to relate culture to personality through four conceptual levels: institutional patterns that characterize the reservation as a subculture within American culture, role patterns that permit us to identify specific points of conflict between the subculture and its environment, the Indian self-image, and individual response to the contemporary situation in psychological terms. I have attempted to relate factors hitherto more or less ignored in culture-personality studies of the Ojibwa-such as income, public assistance dependency, drinking, and racial prejudice-to the present social-psychological adjustment of the
Indian.
Condition: Spine sunned, gift stamp to contents page, corners bumped else very good.
