Abstract | This study was designed to provide longitudinal data bearing on the change and/or stability of college-bound students' educational and vocational goals, as well as their background characteristics. Data from three studies were contrasted and compared. Included in these studies were: (1) a 2-year followup of 4,009 junior college students; (2) a 4-year followup of 5,623 4-year college students; and (3) a comparison of the responses of two independent samples (32,351 and 50,205) of high school seniors. Considerable differences in stability among characteristics were found; however, these seemed to be orderly and according to expectation. The utility of the findings regarding changes and stability in student characteristics for college personnel workers is discussed, and possible applications are suggested. (Author/PC) |
