Sažetak

The first part of the article defines »social expansion«, and points out the
general characteristics of instruments for measuring social expansion »ISE« (Index
of Social Expansion) which has been devised by Prof. Supek.
The second part of the article presents research results regarding the level
of social expansion among rural youth in comparison with city youth, and points
out the factors which affect social expansion among rural youth.
Rural youth is less socially expansive than urban youth, most likely because
of the fact that rural youth to a greater extent belong to a »traditional culture«
and not to a »Prometheus culture«. Among the individual factors which affect social
expansion among rural youth are: sex, age, education, profession, amount of
personally acquired income, non-religiousness and non-attendance in church, liberalization
in respect to marriage relations, a positive relation to socialism, membership
in the League of Communists, and being a member of an expansive national
minority group. Among the group factors which affect social expansion are: Type
of community and number of institutions in the community, percentage of non-
-agricultural households in the community, intergenerational conflicts and tensions,
democracy in the family, and greater social mobility.
