Development of Attitude toward Teaching Career.
Pigge, Fred L.; Marso, Ronald N.
Mid-Western Educational Researcher, v13 n2 p2-9 Spr 2000
A longitudinal study of 117 teachers from the beginning of their preservice education through their fifth year of teaching found that attitude toward teaching as a career remained constant during teacher preparation but was less positive after five years of teaching. This attitude was related to 6 of 15 academic and personal characteristics studied. (Contains 36 references.) (SV)
