The study was conducted to determine the relationships, if any, existing between certain expressed needs, wants and selected characteristics of (1) members of Cooperative Extension Service Homemaker Clubs and (2) homemakers not holding a membership in a Cooperative Extension Service Homemaker Club. The expressed needs, wants and selected characteristics of participants were concerned with the Cooperative Extension Service home economics program, including implementation and presentation.Data were obtained from written responses from a non-probability sample of 502 Delaware County, Indiana, homemakers, 304 Extension Homemaker Club members and 198 non-club members. The participants were attending a Holiday Hints activity on October 26, 1977, sponsored by the Cooperative Extension Service in Delaware County, Indiana.Nine null hypotheses were tested by using the chi-square test at 0.05 level of significance. Other data from the survey were presented in a descriptive manner.The following relationships between club and non-club members were evident based on the findings of the study: mare club members have knowledge of the Cooperative Extension. Service; more club members live in the rural area; non-club members have more years of formal education; club members are older; and club members have more desire to help decide on the Extension activities or lessons for the year.Over half of the club and non-club members were employed outside the home. The workshop and the demonstration were preferred by club and non-club members. Arts and crafts was the home economics subject matter area preferred by both club and non-club members. The activities and lessons preferred by club and non-club members were similar.There was a statistical relationship between the following variables: the age of the Extension Homemaker Club member and the time of day of attendance at Extension-sponsored home economics activities; the age of the homemaker not holding membership in an Extension Homemaker Club and the time of day of attendance at Extension-sponsored home economics activities; Extension Homemaker Club membership and frequency of attendance at Extension-sponsored home economics activities; and area of residence of the homemaker and Extension Homemaker Club membership.The following conclusions were drawn:1. The number of the potential clients served by the Extension home economics agents will be greater if additional programs are developed for women not belonging to Extension Homemaker Clubs.2. New methods should be utilized for extending Extension home economics information to the women.3. Concepts from other home economics subject matter areas should be incorporated into the arts and crafts activities and lessons sponsored by Extension.4. Programs which are provided for people involved in Extension home economics activities or lessons should involve a wide range of non-traditional activities and lessons in addition to the traditional activities.5. Non-club women should be involved in the program planning process.6. An evaluation form should be developed to be completed by women attending Extension-sponsored activities or lessons. Each activity and lesson should also be evaluated by the Extension home economists(s).
