Table 2.
Parameters that determine how often a mother's cultural belief σs is modified by her own, her husband's, and the societal prejudice ρ
| Parameter | Conditions for conversion |
Multiplying factor (due to societal ρ) | Result of conversion (daughter's σs) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maternal σs | Parental ρ | |||
| C10 | σ1 | {1, 0} | (1 − z1) | σ0 |
| V10 | σ1 | {0, 0} | 1 | σ0 |
| C01 | σ0 | {1, 0} | z1 | σ1 |
| V01 | σ0 | {1, 1} | 1 | σ1 |
See text for parameter definitions. Parental ρ = {1, 0} refers both to situations where father's ρ = 1 and mother's ρ = 0, and those where the two values are reversed. Note that parameter subscripts refer to the direction of change in σs, not the state of parental ρ.
