Cross-generational attitudes toward assimilation: the case of Japanese-Americans in Sacramento

The purpose of this study is to explore the attitudes of different generations of Japanese-Americans, in the Metropolitan Sacramento Area, as it relates to the theoretical concepts of Milton Gordon, George Kagiwada, and Marcus Hansen. It is to enable the social worker to have a frame of reference by which he may be able to understand, aware of, and gain knowledge of the Japanese-Americans own conception of how he addresses himself to the social environment in which he lives.
