Certain characteristics,taken as indicators of social isolation, were used to test the general hypothesis that unwed women would be more socially isolated than wed women. The research,done on lower-class women in a large metropolitan city, made use of a typology of legitimacy status to test the hypothesis and subsidiary hypotheses.Social isolation indicators were divided into measures of objective and subjective isolation. The evidence clearly shows no differences in the predicted direction with respect to objective measures of social isolation. On the other hand, subjective measures of social isolation showed differences in the predicted direction but in an inconsistent manner. The dearest findings relating legitimacy status to social isolation in the predicted direction were those of anomie and the constructed Index of Social Isolation.
