This paper discusses the processes that determine the characteristics of professional sub-cultures. It was postulated that mechanisms of attraction, formal and informal selection, promotion and reinforcement of desired characteristics serve to shape the personality which characterizes the members of a profession and can be expected to result in a common set of values, attitudes and skills. It was also postulated that these mechanisms could be investigated through use of self descriptions which...

Two randomly selected panels of men enrolled at 25 universities were identified from student directories, and followed by mail surveys during three successive summers. Results were analyzed for 1,858 men who responded to all three surveys. Panels were selected so that during the longitudinal study Panel A members received increasing...

Very little is known about the Chicanos in the northern U.S., especially those in the Northwest. Research and writing on Chicanos have concentrated on the Southwest or large urban settings, thus excluding those Chicanos residing in rural settings except for those in the migrant stream. These rural residents have become a forgotten people, overlooked even by their own leaders and authors. Yet, many of the movements which are developing in the Southwest are having an impact on the Northwestern...

Bullying, perhaps the most underrated problem in America's schools today, distracts minds and inhibits the learning process; if left unchecked, it can destroy lives and place society at risk. Bullying is defined as one or more individuals inflicting physical, verbal, or emotional abuse upon another individual or individuals. Subliminal abuses related to bullying--such as being teased, intimidated, or intentionally excluded or ostricized--can create fear, anxiety, and pain tantamount to that...

Hip hop rhetoric is a cultural language used by a majority of African Americans, and some European Americans. This type of rhetoric has the ability to change meaning, to eliminate negative messages, and to code language that can only be used by the group who understands its meaning. This style should be of concern to scholars in the field of communication since they study the process of information exchange. The 1990s has made it most intriguing to culturalize music, media, clothing, cuisine,...

In this monograph, student protests and disturbances are viewed within a broad and well-informed framework, which includes: (1) the growing importance of youth and college students in American society; (2) the changing social position of youth and the rise of a generalized youth subculture; and (3) perspectives on cooperative subcultures, deviant subcultures, and rebellious subcultures. The author examines comparative theories of student protest movements from other cultures, as well as...

In "Good God but You Smart!" Nichole E. Stanford provides an account of how attitudes toward Cajun English (CE) perpetuate and are perpetuated by an economic system designed to maintain unequal power relations. While non-Cajun Americans are interested in what they see as Cajun culture, Stanford explains that most misunderstand what "Cajun" means, conflating the terms "Cajun, Creole, Louisiana, and New Orleans." While Cajuns themselves are an ethnically diverse...

When people once talked about culture, they meant knowledge, belief, art, morals, law and customs--the content of civilization. The word is still used in this way, for example, when referring to the cultures of different ethnic groups or nations. Today, when people talk about culture within organizations they often mean something more complicated. Culture within an organization usually means the customary and traditional ways of thinking and doing things, which are shared to some degree by its...

Youths who approved of adventurous, youth-oriented activities were likely to be more involved in delinquent behavior than those who did not, but no relationship was found between approval of more serious offenses and extent of delinquent involvement. Based on questionnaire responses from institutionalized girls in two juvenile reformatories, findings indicate that attitudes of those engaging in serious delinquent activity were similar to the attitudes of those who did not. This argues against...

Teaching of English is involved in the transmission of culture in two ways: (1) it is part of the complex process through which culture is transmitted; and (2) it can be a vehicle for the transmission of culture. The English teacher is faced with a combination of the two tasks of enculturation and acculturation. The effective teacher must clearly understand what she is doing in terms of the cultural milieu of the educational system and the cultural composition of the class, and the concept of...

A total of three distinct geographic areas were identified, and three schools from each were selected for the study....

The way that the concept of culture has been used in the higher education literature to account for certain aspects of faculty life is examined. Culture is defined as the collective, mutually shaping patterns of norms, values, practices, beliefs, and assumptions that guide the behavior of individual faculty and groups and provide a frame of reference within which to interpret the meaning of events and actions on and off the campus. Attention is also directed to uses of the concept of subculture...

Beginning with the principle that self-concept and self-esteem are learned, this paper describes the adolescent self and its social concomitants. The depiction of adolescence emphasizes adolescents' ability to think abstractly and their knowledge of the mind's ability to process, direct, and manipulate experience. In contrast with the "radical empiricist" younger child, the adolescent is seen as a "psychological clinician." This "clinician" includes social...

In his estimation there are 10,000 zines currently in print and over 750,000 readers. The interest in this paper is in those produced by girls...

The purpose of this study was to understand more about the lives of counterculture students, their beliefs and values, and preferences and politics, specifically as those factors relate to their educational experience. While the study began as an exploration of students' perspectives, it became obvious that "student" was not easily defined. Workers...

A verbal clash at an international seminar between Harold Rosen of the United Kingdom, who for years had called for broader views of cultural literacy, and Robert Pattison of the United States, who also had called for a similar broadening of the definition of literacy, illustrates how perceptions of a shared ideology can be surprisingly incompatible, even between scholars from countries sharing a common heritage. Literacy problems of different countries, emerging as they have from different...

In a search for the causes of student unrest, it is difficult to separate basic causes from the spoken and rationilized causes. This paper attempts to present a level of analysis which is sufficiently generic so as to discern basic trends and issues but at the same time descriptively specific, so as to be useful in facing practical issues and consequences. Some of the primary causes are: 1) dissatisfaction with the "system"; 2) the quest for identity. Among the dissenters are: 1) the...

Administrative differences between the broad ethical and moral aspects of the mainstream majoritarian culture and one specific subculture--the Mexican American--are discussed. The main thesis is majoritarian inconsistency ("hyprocrisy") and the demand by the minority culture for consistency ("nonhyprocrisy"). The entire society profits from the attention being called to these discrepancies because this emphasis will be the keystone of a new ethic which will give a more...

Old Order Amish in modern society have retained definite customs and traditions. At the heart of their thinking is the belief that resolving conflicts peacefully within their own cultural group is a necessity. In times of conscription of young men, alternative service in governmental-approved civilian work is performed instead of military service. Types of work approved for the Amish emphasize the national health and safety of humankind in society. Working in hospitals has been an important...

Educators are always dealing with subcultures, whether or not they are labeled as such. The distinguishing elements of a subculture are the values behind observable cultural traits. Each person belongs to one or more subcultures, and the values ascribed either by the subculture to itself or by the greater culture to that subset have continual impact upon a person's world view, which, in turn, influences the individual's responses in a learning situation. Educators often believe that they can...
