Trends in Parental Socialization Values: Detroit, 1958-1983.

Alwin, Duane F.

American Journal of Sociology, v90 n2 p359-82 Sep 1984

For the period 1958-1983 a clear and consistent increase was found among Detroit parents in the value placed on autonomy for children and a decrease in preferences for obedience. This trend was most pronounced among Catholics. Education consistently affected these parental values. (Author/RM)
