Abstract

It was the purpose of this study (1) to gather information which would allow certain concepts of Industrial Sociology to be examined under research conditions as pertaining to social mobility in a relatively little known occupation; (2) to collect data which would establish an occupation hierarchy and indicate intra-occupational vertical and horizontal mobility among used automobile salesmen; and (3) to discover the relationship of occupational inheritance to the occupation of used automobile salesmen.
