Wilder, David H.; And Others
Research in Higher Education, v37 n3 p279-98 Jun 1996
A longitudinal study examined the impact of undergraduate study on 3,942 arts and sciences students, as measured by change in their freshman and senior ratings of four Clark-Trow "educational philosophies": vocational, academic, collegiate, and nonconformist. Results indicated significant increases in academic and nonconformist philosophies, decreases in vocational and collegiate. Implications for reinterpretation of the dimensions underlying the types are considered. (Author/MSE)
