Career Choice Factors for BSW Students: A 10-Year Perspective.
Hanson, James G.; McCullagh, James G.
Journal of Social Work Education, v31 n1 p28-37 Win 1995
A 10-year study of the major career choice factors of social work undergraduates (n=746) found that, although altruism remains important, students are motivated by both service to others and job self-interest. Dimensions of motivation for choosing social work have not changed significantly over this period. (Author/MSE)
