The overall hypothesis tested in this study supported a significant relationship between the local school superintendent's attitude toward federal aid to education profiles and selected factors in his experience and background. This overall hypothesis was expanded to 11 hypotheses for purposes of the study. An inventory of 114 statements about federal aid to education provisions and requirements was submitted to 151 randomly selected public school superintendents from Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Multiple regression correlation and mean difference analysis were performed on the resulting data. Major findings show that (1) public school superintendents in the region differ in their attitudes toward federal aid to education profiles and (2) there are significant relationships between the public school superintendents' attitudes toward federal aid to education profiles as measured by scores obtained on the profile inventories and selected factors in their experience and environment.
