26. Sample annotated bibliography citation Goldschnieder, F.K., Waite, & Witsberger, C. (1986). Nonfamily living and the erosion of traditional values. American Sociological Review, 51, 541-554. The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations. Their hypothesis is strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams (cited below) shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living.
