The Journal of Asian Studies wishes to acknowledge the following error which appeared in the review of Life in a Leyte Village, page 357 of the February 1967 issue. The reviewer reported that a wife often acts succorantly toward her husband but not toward her father or mother. Author Ethel Nurge reports that the reverse is true. The wife seldom acts succorantly toward her husband but often does to her father and mother.

The author also wishes to clarify the point that the concepts of responsibility, succorance, dominance, obedience, aggression and nurturance as variables all are derived from the work of J. M. and B. B. Whiting. Further, the author stresses that her data were not taken from her doctoral dissertation.
