HENGGELER It has been frequently argued that the attitudes and behavior of rural families are responsible for perpetuating the relatively high levels of poverty in rural regions.
And rural farm residents is not our intention, we do want to indicate the kind of information that can be gleaned from the table. Let us consider, for example, the first six occupational categories for rural nonfarm residents (Professional, Technical, and Kindred Workers; Managers and Administrators, except Farm; Sales Workers; Clerical and Kindred Workers; Craftsmen and Kindred Workers; Operatives, except Transport) and compare for the three racial groups the percentage of people working in aB six categories taken together.
Education Rural families have often been described as resistent to "book learning" (Weller, 1965) and toward formal education in general (Matthews, 1965; PearsalC 1959). Interestingly, Nelson and Frost (1971) found that rural Presbyterians in southern Appalachia placed a relatively heavy emphasis on education when compared with lower-dass urban populations. Nevertheless, the rural parents evaluated their own schools more negatively, and they desired less education for their children. The authors suggested that these seemingly contradictory findings reflected the tendency of rural residents to excuse themselves for a sense of failure.
