The objective of the second part of a larger research study (which was designed to study and assess the adult basic education (ABE) program in Nebraska at the local level from January 1, 1971 to December 31, 1974 and to assess the local community awareness of the ABE program) was to survey the present adult basic education teacher occupational attitudes, characteristics, and training experiences. Teachers of ABE were queried as to their (1) attitudes toward their jobs, (2) feelings about ABE teaching as a career, (3) perceived training needs, and (4) current teaching competencies. Data was gathered through a mailed survey in May of 1975. One hundred fifty-one teachers in local ABE programs responded to the survey representing 80% of the total population. A pilot test using the assessment instrument was made and a test-retest measure demonstrated 99.8 reliability. Personal observations and interviews as well as content analysis by experts were used to rate the validity of the instrument. The report contains six chapters: (1) an introduction; (2) an examination of the literature related to employee attitudes and job satisfaction; (3) a description of the design of the study, methodology, the pilot study, and procedures; (4) a report of the data and analysis of the data; (5) interpretation of the results of the data, with a summary of the results; and (6) a discussion of the implications and recommendations of the study.
