The effect of patrilocal households on nuclear family interaction in Zinacantan
This paper explores some effects of residence patterns routine family interaction in Zinacantán, Chiapas, Mexico. Five nuclear families (neolocal households) are compared with five extended families which include the parents of the husband (patrilocal households). In both types of households the routine interaction among women and children was recorded. In this paper, the interaction record is analyzed to see if the differences between the two types of households can be explained by a theory of interaction based on small groups research. Some findings that are not directly relevant to the theory are also examined.
