Scope of Study
Summary: This data collection contains information on 1,366 college students and non-college youths between 17 and 23. This study was conducted in 1969 by Daniel Yankelovich, Inc., for the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS). The results were broadcast May 20, 27, and June 3, 1969, in three sections: "Question of Values," "A Profile of Dissent," and "The Youth International." A study of the generation gap, this survey contains questions on the types of social change and societal restraints the respondents would welcome or reject. In addition, respondents were asked about their views of their parents' values as well as their own, and which political events had affected their life and values. Other questions covered abortion, sexual relations, civil disobedience, criticism of American society, drugs, career goals, the draft, and tactics to be used in social change. Demographic data include education, marital status, occupation, income, and religious preference for both respondents and their parents. The data were obtained from the Social Science Data Center at the University of Connecticut.
