Abstract
Differences related to degree aspiration, desired nursing career specialty, and other nursing-related biographical variables were found among the four classes of a sample of 408 full-time non-RN female subjects in a baccalaureate nursing program. These differences were associated with shifts in the work values patterns of the subjects. Extrinsic work values and a nurturant nursing-specific work values system characterized the freshman profile. This was replaced by an intrinsic work values system and a leadership nursing-specific work value profile cluster in the senior sample. There was no detectable classwise change in the high altruistic work values emphasis of the sample.
