Abstract
The major purpose of the study was to determine the effect of a teacher education program upon the attitudes of undergraduate students toward children. At the beginning and end of a fall quarter the MTAI was administered to 250 undergraduate teacher education students in the various levels of the professional programs at the University of Denver. Pre-test and post-test scores were compared. Differences were obtained (t = .01 level). Thirty-two students who demonstrated the greatest change in score were interviewed in an effort to determine causes of change. Student attitudes were changed while in the teacher education program by influences within and outside the program.
