This study was limited to 50 former homemaking students who are now young married homemakers living in or near Radford, Virginia. The former students were enrolled in vocational homemaking at Radford High School sometime during the years 1951-1955. The interview method was used to gather the data. The purposes of the study were:

1. To determine what problems these young homemakers had encountered in the various areas of homemaking;
2. To determine the sources of aid they had used to help them in solving problems;
3. To determine if their high school homemaking had helped them in solving problems; and
4. To determine what this study indicates are the aspects of homemaking that should be stressed.
