The weights are the total Experienced Civilian Labor Force, 1960. b^Score shown is the (unweighted) average of the scores of the several titles listed. c^Score is the weighted average of the scores for the detailed lines under "Natural Scientists" (as is the score for that line). The weights are the total Experienced Civilian Labor Force, 1960. d^Score is the weighted average of the scores for "Farm Owner and Operator", "Tenant Farmer", "Tenant Farmer--one who owns livestock and machinery and manages the farm," and "Sharecropper". The two tenant farmer titles are simply averaged, and the weight applied to that average score. The weights are based on the tenancy classification of the Census of Agriculture and are taken from U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1962:Table 6. e^The score for "Inspectors, Public Administration, State Public Administration" is derived by assuming that its ratio to the (known) score for "Inspectors ... Federal Public Administration and Postal Service" is equal to the (known) ratio of the score for "Officials and Administrators, Public Administration, State Public Administration" to that for "Officials and Administrators...Federal Public Administration and Postal Service," q.v. A similar assumption permits derivation of a score for "Inspectors ... Local Public Administration." f^According to Census classification procedures, this title is not a member of the Census Detailed Occupational Category matched. See text for details. g^Matching titles refer to industries, rated in a separate operation in the HSR Study and converted via regression to differentiate "Operatives and Kindred Workers, n.e.c." by industries. See text for details. h^Titles taken from the stub of U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1964:Table 201. Two lines from that table are not included: "Former Members of the Armed Forces," which refers to individuals who have not held a civilian occupation since leaving the Armed Services, and "Occupation Not Reported." j^Titles are given the exact wording rated. The study in which a title was rated is indicated in parentheses: "Rep" is the 1963 replication of the North-Hatt-NORC Study of Occupational Prestige; "HSR" is the 1964 study by Hodge, Siegel and Rossi; "Sup" is the supplemental study carried out by Hodge, Siegel, and Rossi in the Fall of 1965. k^Ratings by Hodge and Siegel comparing the occupations "covered" by the rated title to those included in the census category: "M"--more inclusive than the census category; "S"--about the same; "L"--less inclusive than the census category; and "D"-disjoint from the census category or overlapping several categories. m^Ratings by Hodge and Siegel of how well, in a global sense, the title rated matches the diverse occupations allocated to the category by the census classification: "l"--good; "O"--poor. n^Experienced Civilian Labor Force, 1960, see note h.
