Summary: The study of social status employing objective criteria of assessment is a well established and highly important branch of sociological studies. Subjective assessment, though a relatively novel approach to the study of status, is, however, by no means less important. In 1965 Dr (Miss) M. O. L. Klein, Associate Expert at this Centre, prepared a research design for the study of subjective assessment of status among Indian rural and urban communities in the context of industrialization. Subsequently, two studies were made in 1965-66, one in Coimbatore by Dr P. V. Veera raghavan of the South India Textile Research Association, and the other in Poona by Dr A. Bopegamage of the Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics. This Centre made grants available to these research institutions to partly finance these studies.
