  7. "When each independent variable is tested against premarital sex norms while holding the others constant, only three [i.e., accessibility of caretakers, class stratification, and cultural complexity] retain their power to predict permissiveness and restrictiveness with statistical certainty" (398)Broude, Gwen J. - Norms of premarital sexual behavior: a cross-cultural study, 1975 - 7 Variables

    This article examines correlates of premarital sexual norms cross-culturally.
