Young, Raymond J.

Journal of Experimental Education, v54 n2 p114-17 Win 1985-86

The question studied was whether opinions of persons interviewed about educational interests and perceived needs at randomly selected geographic locations in a metropolitan area differed from those of three other persons living in the immediate vicinity. With few significant exceptions, no statistically significant differences were found between the two groups. (Author/LMO)
