  2. "The following variables of societal organization significantly distinguish monogamous from polygynous societies: (1) type of subsistence economy; (2) system of social stratification; (3) level of political integration; (4) pattern of settlement . . ." (10)Osmond, Marie W. - Toward monogamy: a cross-cultural study of correlates of type of marriage, 1965 - 5 Variables

  3. Belligerence will be positively associated with a society's level on the index of primitivity (37, 39).Broch, Tom - Belligerence among the primitives, 1966 - 2 Variables

    This study is based on data given in Quincy Wright's (1942) 'A Study of War.' The author examines many correlates of belligerence in non-industrial societies. Results suggest that political organization, inter-cultural relations, and level of primitivity are associated with belligerence.

  7. Number and intensity of animal food taboos decrease with political and economic complexity.Human Relations Area Files - A cross-cultural study of protein consumption: the role of cultural taboos i..., 1961 - 3 Variables

    This study was designed to determine whether there is a significant correlation between the number (or intensity) of restrictions on consumption of animal protein and a low level of animal protein. Findings do not support a correlation.
