| Abstract | Status attainment processes of the experienced civilian labor force of rural India and rural United States were analyzed by using the Blau-Duncan model, for the first time employing that model to compare rural sectors of an agrarian society with those in an industrial society. United States data were obtained from the 1962 Occupational Changes in a Generation Survey; Indian data were obtained from the 1962 Census of India Village Survey studies of three states. The comparison was limited to male respondents 20 to 64 years old. Treiman's Standard International Occupational Prestige Scale was used to measure occupational status. Because of lack of data from the India sample, the variable of father's education was eliminated from the basic Blau-Duncan model. Using path analysis, results were obtained for the total sample as well as for different age cohorts. Results showed education was relatively unimportant in the rural Indian occupational structure but relatively important in the US structure. The largest direct effect on current occupation in both societies was from the respondent's previous occupation (India) or first job (US). Effect of the third variable, father's occupation, on current occupation was more important in India than in the US. (RS) |
