Peer reviewedPorter-Gehrie, Cynthia – Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 1979
A middle-class adolescent peer group was examined, using ethnographic techniques, to describe the group's relationship to adults and to uncover the adult reference group after which the group modeled itself. Although this group was organized to help poor people, it modeled itself after middle-class adult managers. (Author/GDC)
