AB - Abstract This article investigates certain elements of causal belief systems and the reasons for respondent irrationality. Connections between a respondent's ideology and social action or sense of powerlessness are suggested and avenues of future investigation revealed. This content is only available as a PDF. Author notes * This paper, which was prepared for The American Sociological Association, August 1972, makes use of data gathered from the Middle-American Project at the University of Michigan and the Center for Policy Research in New York City. The Ford Foundation contributed financial aid, but it is in no way responsible for the conclusions reached. John Musick, Project Research Assistant at the University of Michigan, did much of the interviewing and coding and contributed to the ideas presented. In addition, discussions with Herbert Gans, Roberto Kleinfeld, John Hammond, and Alan Silver were most useful, although they do not necessarily agree with these formulations. Editorial revisions were made by Lauren Katzowitz. © 1973, the American Association for Public Opinion Research
