The Protestant Work Ethic, Disability, and the Rehabilitation Student.

Thomas, Kenneth R.; And Others

Counselor Education and Supervision, v21 n4 p269-73 Jun 1982

Surveyed 50 graduate students in rehabilitation counseling regarding their attitudes toward the Protestant Work Ethic (PWE). Found the students more likely to endorse those aspects of the PWE reflecting the intrinsic value of work than those dealing with earnings, social status, and advancement for themselves and disabled persons.
