Sumario:This article presents information on research papers published in this issue of the journal "Marriage and Family Living." One research paper "Social Class and Family Control of Television Viewing," examines class differences in parental policies governing the use of the family television set by the children and the whole family. The sample consisted of 102 white mothers having children between 2 and 18 years of age. Data were obtained by a pretested interview schedule consisting of 24 open-ended questions. In another research "Personality Characteristics of the Mothers of Aggressive and Unaggressive Children," The general hypothesis was that the tendency to develop aggressive techniques may be determined by inherited constitutional factors of introversion-extraversion and neuroticism. The participants were 48 mothers and their 108 children who were between 7-11 years of age. The children's aggressiveness was rated by two teachers and the mothers' extraversion and neuroticism was measured by the Maudsley Personality Inventory.
