Derek Freeman, a social anthropologist, argues that Margaret Mead’s work in Samoa was flawed. Freeman believes that there are certain elements in Mead’s work that show her views on Samoan adolescents and their sexual freedom to be warped. Mead was over prepared going into this study leading her to believe anything that the teenage Samoans told her. ...
Freeman argues that her living conditions and lack of understanding of the Samoan’s language may have also been a factor for collecting false information within her research. Freeman argues that Mead did not live with the Samoans, but rather was housed by an American family in Samoa.
