註釋
In "The Unadjusted Girl, With Cases and Standpoint for Behavior Analysis," William Isaac Thomas presents a pioneering examination of the social behaviors and psychological patterns of women who diverge from societal norms. The text blends ethnographic case studies with theoretical frameworks derived from sociology and psychology, employing a poignant literary style that cogently articulates the complexities of gender roles in the early 20th century. Thomas's work is situated within the Chicago School of sociology, reflecting an ethnographic approach that emphasizes the unique challenges and resilience of women who resist adjustment to societal expectations. William Isaac Thomas, a prominent sociologist and co-founder of the Chicago School, was influenced by his extensive studies of social behavior and the impact of community dynamics on individual identity. His insights into the marginalization of women and the concept of the 'unadjusted girl' are informed by a lifelong commitment to understanding social deviancy. Drawing from various case studies, his work highlights the intersectionality of gender, class, and cultural expectations, providing a rich tapestry of lived experiences. This book is an invaluable resource for scholars and anyone interested in gender studies, sociology, or psychology. It offers a profound understanding of identity formation and the implications of societal expectations, making it a must-read for those seeking deeper insights into individual behavior within social frameworks.
