AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This source presents the generalized results of an intensive study of a group of Navaho children from the Ramah area, as regards certain outstanding features of early life (i.e., cradle practices, nursing, weaning, toilet training, and infant sexuality). It is more detailed on these aspects than 'Children of the People' (2: Leighton) and contains the author's theoretical views on the effect and non-effect of these situations on adult Navajo personality.
