A Note on the Relationship between Higher Education and Political Trust
Abravanel, Martin D.; Busch, Ronald J.
Teaching Political Science, 4, 4, 435-44, Jul 77

Results show that for each college year there was an increased gap between the trust levels of students majoring in different disciplines. (Author/RM)
