| Abstract: | AbstractThe Allport-Vernon-Lindzey Study of Values was administered to 19 secondary and 19 college history teachers, matched according to sex, subject taught, age, time of graduation, and academic ability. Differences between the two groups were obtained on the aesthetic scale, on which the college teachers scored significantly higher. On the economic scale, the college teachers were lower-but only when the two groups were divided into "younger" and "older" was the difference significant, with the "younger" college teachers significantly lower than the "older" secondary teachers. The "younger" high school teachers tended to score more nearly like the college teachers, but "younger" teachers in both groups scored less like the norms than their "older" colleagues. |
