Abstract
Study findings suggest that selective processes and graduate education combine to produce a professional social worker who has a favorable orientation toward public dependency. Previous studies which found no relation between graduate education and value change or which found a negative relation, may be explained on the basis that the values studied may not have found expression in the curriculum or were diluted in strength because they competed with other cherished values.Keywords
