Replication of Americans View Their Mental Health, 1976
Listed in Harvard Dataverse
This replication of a 1957 study (see Gurin, Veroff, and Feld, 1957, Log# 00077) was conducted to determine the status of mental health in the American adult population and to determine the typical coping styles used by this population.
Description
The population from which this representative sample was drawn consisted of all adults, 21 years old or older living in private homes in the United States. An area probability sample was drawn, with the county as the stratification unit.
The Survey Research Center of the University of Michigan conducted interviews with 2,264 subjects. The questionnaires focused on various areas of one's life where problems may develop, such as marriage and family, work, and general social relationships. Participants were asked about general satisfaction and satisfaction with their marital and work roles.

Questions about health; attitudes about self, work, and family; coping styles and methods; and background items were also included. Finally, the interviews contained six Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) picture projective cues. The 1976 replication includes 70% of the questions asked in 1957.
The Murray Archive holds additional analogue materials for this study (typed TAT protocols from a random subsample). If you would like to access this material, please apply to use the data.
