| BOX 28-112 | Part I: Projects, 1936-1971 | ||||||||||||
| The Projects series constitutes more than half of Part I and contains files from
three major research projects as well as a miscellaneous grouping of smaller
projects. The largest amount of material is from the Image of the Scientist
project in which Métraux investigated high school students' attitudes toward
science and scientists through a series of questionnaires distributed to more than
130 public and private schools in the winter of 1956-1957. The files also contain
elementary school essays and drawings and a series of questionnaires answered by
college students and adults. When Sputnik was launched in October 1957, Mead
issued an emergency call to colleagues across the country for evidence of popular
reaction to the Soviet satellite. The Sputnik files include elementary school
essays and drawings and responses to interviews and questionnaires by high school
students, college students, and adults in the United States and Canada. Two other large projects are featured in the Projects series. In the Studies in Allopsychic Orientation project, started around 1959, Mead and Métraux explored differing perceptions of time, space, and the unknown. The project files include questionnaire responses from various groups in the United States, including high school, college, and deaf students and the elderly, as well as cross-cultural data from Bali, Montserrat, Papua New Guinea, Pakistan, and Samoa, among other places. Through the Cultural Structure of Imagery project, begun in 1965, Métraux explored cultural differences in communication evident in music, speech, and body motion. The project's files consist largely of notes, proposals, reports, and diaries from her fieldwork in Montserrat (1953-1954, 1966) and Papua New Guinea (1967-1968, 1971). Notes from Métraux's fieldwork in Haiti during the 1940s are located in the Subject File. The Project series also contains material from several smaller projects, including Métraux's studies of Mexican food habits, French national character, adoption, outdoor recreation, and regional planning; an American Association of University Women questionnaire on higher education; and a study of lay and clerical attitudes toward race undertaken for the Riverside Church in New York City in 1959. Material types include: correspondence, memoranda, reports, minutes, financial records, interview transcripts, questionnaires, drawings and artwork, notebooks, photographs, statistical analyses, and printed matter. |
