Abstract	The fourth volume of the summative evaluation of "Man: A Course of Study" (MACOS) contains all appended materials developed by the project staff to analyze the MACOS program. MACOS, one of the more elaborate and controversial developments of the New Social Studies, was designed in 1970 as a one year course based upon social science concepts for grades five and six. The appendix is presented in eight sections. Section I, the major portion of the appendix, contains instruments which measured student and teacher skills and attitudes related to MACOS and other social studies programs. Section II presents tables of data which relate to characteristics of the 15 school districts which participated in the project, and to social studies programs and curricula used in the districts. Section III presents scattergrams related to variables such as student attitudes, achievement, classroom processes, and climate. Section IV presents histograms of principal component distributions. Section V offers statistical data based on class means. Section VI gives a brief description of five innovative upper elementary social studies programs which were used as bases of comparison with MACOS. The final section discusses the agreement among project staff members regarding the coding of interviews with students and teachers. (Author/DB)
