✦ Synopsis

This study empirically validated Antonovsky's suggestion that differing cultural pathways exist in the development of a Sense of Coherence. Differences were found in the ways in which essentially identical levels of a Sense of Coherence were developed in Native Americans and Anglo-Americans. Native Americans' families appear to emphasize moral and religious values while Anglo-American families appear to emphasize achievement and independence.

## Abstract Antonovsky has proposed the sense of coherence (SOC) as a crucial factor that protects against symptoms of mental disease.
