Possible dysfunctional consequences of upward social mobility for extended family cohesion were sought from 89 upwardly mobile families in Uppsala, Sweden. Educational,occupational, and financial mobility were correlated with seven measures of extended family cohesion, which was found to be negatively correlated with differential mobility between the couple and their adult siblings, intergenerational occupational mobility, and spatial separation of the couple and their extended families. However, extended family cohesion was found to be positively correlated with lower or working-class background, and with higher ambitions of the couples. Findings thus tend to support Turner's notion that both "class-consciousness"and "prestige identification" exist together in varying degrees today in urban mobile families.
