Hypothesis

"Son-to-father and wife-to-husband deference are positively correlated" (325)

Note

This is part of a wider exploration of deference relationships. When there is deference, it is generally received by older men and rarely given to women. Societies with deference relationships generally have several such relationships, with the child-father relationship the core of this pattern.
