Abstract
Students entering courses in engineering, law, medicine and teaching in 4 Australian universities were tested with a specially devised Attitude Inventory. Scores were obtained for: Intellectual Interests, Academic Activities, Political‐Economic Liberalism, Social Liberalism, Pragmatism Dogmatism and Cynicism. 7 analyses of variance, using the scale scores as dependent variables, revealed significant effects due to faculty, university and interaction. Faculty differences which were the most numerous, and occurred with every scale, were considered in the context of a study of professional socialization.
