Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare Title IV-E MSW and non-Title IV-E students' perspectives on transracial adoption and to investigate students' needs for knowledge about transracial adoption. While the majority of students supported the practice of transracial adoption, Title IV-E students appeared more positive about the abilities of parents to racially socialize a child of a different culture/race. Both groups of students appeared to be unaware of how transracial adoption may affect children's ethnic identities. Students also indicated they needed more information on transracial adoption. Implications for social work education and research are discussed.
