“…Occupational status has been analyzed in detail (Chalmers & Dorsey, 1962;Gibbs, 1965;Glenn, 1962Glenn, , 1963aGlenn, , 1963bGlenn, , 1964Guernsey, 1964), with a conclusion that not only does the Negro have a considerably inferior status, but his relative position did not improve from 19 SO to 1960. The same conclusion can be drawn regarding unemployment and income (Amos & Perry, 1963;Daniel, 1963). The number of substandard homes owned by nonwhites fell 20% from 1950 to 1960, whereas there was a decrease of S3 % in the number of substandard homes owned by whites (Yarrow & Sunderhauf, 1963).…”

This is a review of psychological studies concerning Negroes and whites in the United States for the most part from 1959 through 1965. The topics covered include: the physical substrata of psychological and psychosocial functions, physical and motor development, psychophysical functions, intellectual functions, educational and occupational attainment and aspirations, temperament, social perceptions and attitudes, mental illness, crime and delinquency, family organization. Research results from this period generally confirm the summary statements made in a similar review in 1960. Although the literature reflects some increase in sophistication of design of comparative studies, many inadequacies continue to exist. Meaningful comparative studies are likely to call for more complex experimental procedures and designs involving a number of interactions.
