Acculturation and personality among the Wisconsin Chippewa

Memoir Series of the American Anthropological Association (72) • Published In 1950 • Pages: 152

By: Barnouw, Victor.

Abstract
The author's purpose in this monograph was to show the ways in which Chippewa acculturation differs from acculturation in other Indian tribes. He has attempted to get at the central personality characteristics of these people and show how these characteristics have been expressed in their history, resulting in their particular pattern of acculturation. The author's thesis and conclusions are based on life history and projective test material (Rorschach and TAT) gained from four individuals, and on recorded and traditional history.
