Work Values of Mortuary Science Students
Shaw, Thomas; Duys, David K.
Career Development Quarterly, v53 n4 p348-352 Jun 2005
This article describes a descriptive study in an area significantly lacking validation. The focus of the study was the work values held by mortuary science students from 3 educational programs in the Midwest. The Values Scale (D. Nevill & D. Super, 1989) was used to measure the career-related values of a sample group of 116. According to participants' scores, the 5 subscales of Economic Security, Achievement, Personal Development, Ability Utilization, and Economic Rewards were the highest ranking. Work values were examined by gender, race, and other demographics. (Contains 1 table.)
