Occupational Choice and the Assertiveness of Librarians: A Comparison of Beginning Students in Undergraduate Library, Law, and Liberal Arts Schools in Nigeria.

Agada, John

Library and Information Science Research, v9 n4 p305-25 Oct-Dec 1987

A study was conducted at Ahmadu Bello University (Nigeria) to determine whether library science students were less assertive than their counterparts in the law and liberal arts schools. An attitude index administered to 100 undergraduate students showed no significant differences among the assertion levels of the three groups. The questionnaire is appended. (48 references) (MES)
