Abstract
The purpose of the study was to develop and examine a descriptive profile of teachers of hearing handicapped children and teachers of hearing children. Teachers in California public schools were invited to participate by completing a questionnaire, the Teacher Preference Schedule and the Strong Vocational Interest Blank. The completed data were matched on the basis of sex, grade level, and population classification of the school community. Fifty-seven matched pairs of females were analyzed. Teachers of exceptional children (hearing handicapped): 1. Differ on certain aspects of professional qualification, 2. Differ in contact experience with the exceptional child they teach, 3. Are not more child-centered in their unconscious motivation for teaching, and 4. Have a higher degree of social service interest than teachers of non-exceptional children.
