Series contains handwritten bound research notebooks completed by James Morrison during his thesis research on the Jos Plateau in Nigeria. The research notebooks contain notes on fieldwork, oral history notes and language lists, drawings and maps. The series contains two subseries, "Complied field work notebooks" and "History of Assakio village".

Series consists of textual records of James Morrison's correspondence while attending and teaching at the University of Ibadan, and resumes and research notes.

Series is comprised of materials related to the 1961 Cornell-Aro Research Project in the Western Region and the 1963 Study on the Role of Women. In the Cornell-Aro study, modeled on the Stirling County Study, Leighton’s team analyze the mental health trends of Nigerians living in both major cities and small rural villages via interviews, surveys, and observations. The Role of Women study may possibly be considered a ‘sub-study’ of the Cornell-Aro study, as it uses much of the same research material supplemented by new data. Materials present include correspondence, memoranda, datasets, research notes, fieldnotes reports, speeches, photographs, forms, applications, surveys and questionnaires, medical documents, affiliated studies, and comparative analyses.
