The Rokeach Value Survey, which requires ranking two sets of 18 values, was administered to 24 Israeli paraprofessionals before and after a 16-week training program on disability-related topics. Four terminal values (wisdom, self-respect, equality, sense of accomplishment) and three instrumental values (polite, helpful, clean) rose in importance. (JW)
