Abstrakt: The responses of a probability sample of 216 undergraduates to items measuring attitudes toward seven family issues were utilized to form a Conventionality Index(CI), the dependent variable. Independent variables categorized as demographic, value, and interaction variables were then cross-tabulated with the CI. As predicted, interaction variables were most significantly and strongly related to the conventionality of students' attitudes toward the family. A stepwise multiple regression indicated that the students' identification with parents, political views, and religiosity were the best predictors of their CI scores. The results are related to Farber's theory' of the orderly replacement of family culture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
