Abstract

The authors surveyed a group of 745 public school teachers and compared them with college seniors in regard to a number of topics of concern to society today. They found that the use of drugs was more widespread among teachers than expected and that there was a close similarity between college seniors and teachers under age 30 in all areas examined. The authors point out the need for more studies on the attitudes and practices of teachers and on the effects of these factors on teaching programs.
