Description: 1,366 college students and non-college youth between 17 and 23 comprised the sample for this study which was conducted in 1969 by Daniel Yankelovich, Inc., for the Columbia Broadcasting System. The results were broadcast May 20, 27, and June 3, 1969, in three sections: "Question of Values," "A Profile of Dissent," and "The Youth International." A study of the generation gap, this survey contains questions on the type of social change and societal restraints the respondents would welcome or reject. In addition the respondents were probed on their views of their parents' values as well as their own. They were asked which political events have affected their life and values. Issues inquired into include abortions, sexual relations, civil disobedience, criticism of American society, drugs, career goals, the draft and tactics to be used in social change. Demographic data includes education, marital status, occupation, income, religious preference for both respondents and their parents.
