Virginia Polytechnic Institute

A comparison of judgments respecting the worth of various occupations made by seniors and freshmen at a teachers' college

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

One of the main purposes of the study, then, became that of estimating the degree of change which may be expected, with regard to attitudes concerning occupations, during a four-year period of college experiences. In order to carry out that purpose, an investigation was made of the occupational attitudes held by Seniors and Freshmen at Radford College, in order to observe whatever differences might exist between the judgments of the two groups. The fact that most of the subject groups were preparing for work in a professional field was taken into consideration where preference was shown for occupation of a professional nature.
