Description These data were collected as a follow-up of a subsample from the study conducted by Winter, McClelland, and Stewart in 1974 (Log# 00531).




In late 1977, a Life Patterns Questionnaire was mailed to all members of the class of 1975 from the Ivy College subsample (69 males and 49 females). The response rate was approximately 70% for the total sample.



The Life Patterns Questionnaire, containing both open-ended and precoded questions, elicited background information, college experiences, activities since graduation, and future aspirations. Most of the items were drawn from the original Life Patterns Questionnaire used in Stewart's 1960-1979 study (see Log# 00007).



The Murray Research Archive holds numeric data files from the study. Original responses to the open-ended questions are also available.
