In thinking about how to reconcile the views of earlier theorists such as Wirth and Parsons, who suggested that urban nuclear families were isolated and cut off from extended kin, with later research on the continued viability of urban kinship networks, Hutter hypothesizes that

▸ the earlier theorists did not look at the effects of the Americanization experience on generational relationships in the extended family.

▸ the later findings on the viability of extended family ties did not take into account that people may have been thinking of the past when they reported having such ties.

▸ both sides were right, but they were studying different types of families.

▸ Wirth and Parsons found what they expected to find rather than what was really there.
