Starting with Fromm's (1941) distinction between rational and inhibiting authority, the study investigates children's attitudes toward their parents' restrictive norms and checking actions, assigned to either rational or inhibiting authority according to their ascribed motivation. Further distinctions between checking actions of a more concrete versus a more abstract nature, between direct and projective forms of inventories, and between different formulations of the items as implication sentences versus conventional attitude questions make a coherent system of variables that is applied according to the cross-sectional method to a sample of 656 Swedish children from 11-15 years of age. The results indicate that if parents' restrictive norms and checking actions are accompanied by authoritarian motivations (inhibiting authority), the children's positive attitudes towards these are negatively correlated with chronological age, verbal intelligence with the age factor eliminated, and preference for altruistic alternatives to authoritarian ones in imaginary occupational situations, but that these correlations are greater for items concerning more concrete situations, and for inventories applied in a direct rather than projective form. If the restrictive norms and checking actions are accompanied by rational motivations (indicating rational parental authority), the attitudes have a tendency to correlate positively with these three independent variables if they are given general and abstract formulations (as opposed to concrete) and the projective forms of inventories are employed.

>Freud and the Post-Freudians< explains the main concepts of Freudian psychology and goes on to review the theories of Adler, Jung, Rank and Stekel. Later developments in the orthodox Freudian school are also discussed, as are those of the American Neo-Freudians and Post-Freudians in Britain. A clear and invaluable introduction to Freud and to his successors in psychology, Dr. Brown's study is also the first book published in Britain to bring together all these schools and analyse them, both from the Freudian standpoint and from that of the scientific psychologists. – Index: Editorial foreword – Basic concepts of psychoanalysis – The theories of Freud: A general survey – The early schismatics – The British schools – The psychosomatic approach – Psychoanalysis and society – The theories of Karen Horney – The theories of Erich FROMM – Harry Stack Sullivan and others – Assessments and applications – Bibliography.
