Age and Intergroup Differences in Attitudes toward the Teaching Profession: How Do Teachers and Students View Themselves and Each Other?
Lipka, Richard P.; Goulet, L. R.
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v6 n1 p12-21 Jan 1981
Attitudes toward the profession were determined among different aged teachers and students enrolled in teacher education programs. No age differences in attitudes among the teacher samples were found but intergroup differences in attitudes were found between students and teachers. These results support Neugarten's hypothesis concerning effect of changes in social states. (Author/RD)
