In this paper, we study the change of the influence of the factors affecting individuals' occupations from 1955 to 1975 with SSM data, using regression and logit models. The following findings have been obtained from regression model analysis. The influence of father's occupation hadn't changed during 20 years. That of education had weakened gradually. That of first job had become stronger from 1955 to 1965, but hadn't changed from 1965 to 1975. The following findings have been obtained from logit model analysis. The influence of father's occupation had changed differently according to occupational categories. That of education had been strong at 1955 and 1965, but weakened from 1965 to 1975. That of first job had become stronger. The difference between the findings from regression and logit model analyses means that these models shed light on the different aspects of the real world.
