Patterns of participation in formal organizations by
residents of a rural non-farm community are compared with
those of residents in an urban community. Multi-stage
random sampling is utilized in Denton to select those inter-
viewed. In Krum, each residence was numbered and a table
of random numbers was used to select households. Chapter
One includes the study's purpose, review of the literature,
and statement of the hypotheses. Methodology is discussed
in the second chapter. Chapter Three focuses on findings
and discussion. Data indicate that in the urban community
social class, age, homeownership, and length of residency
are related to amount of participation. In the rural non-
farm community social class is related to participation.
Residents in the urban community participate more than those
in the rural non-farm community."I I i R .. I-- mom
