A multiple regression analysis using "dummy" variables is utilized in a study of family organization in 412 societies selected randomly from Murdock's "Ethnographic Atlas." Results indicate that type of family is significantly related to variables of societal organization,that these latter variables can be categorized by rank as to productivity and/or societal complexity, and that the limited family type is more likely to be found in complex societies than is the general family type. The family typology proposed here, which emphasizes the comparative amount of economic responsibility that must be assumed by the family head, appears more useful in dealing with family-societal relationships than the previously used independent-extended family dichotomy
