Abstract

Little research has been done on the attitudes of American Indian groups toward occupation, education, or occupational mobility. Although anthropologists have studied the American Indian since the early 1940's, they have tended to focus upon tribal groupings studying each as an isolated people bearing the survivals of an aboriginal culture.
