УСПЕШНОЕ ТРУДОУСТРОЙСТВО И КАРЬЕРНЫЙ РОСТ В ПРЕДСТАВЛЕНИЯХ МОЛОДЕЖИ ЮГА РОССИИ

Objective of the study – analysis of the ideas of modern youth in the South of Russia about the ways of employment that allows them to achieve professional success, as well as about the main factors that have the greatest impact on career growth.   The methodological basis of the research is presented by the results of a sociological study carried out by the staff of the South Russian branch of the Federal Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The research method is a questionnaire.   Research results. The ideas of modern youth about successful employment are based on the understanding that success depends more on their own efforts. But at the same time, a significant part of the representatives of the younger generation believe that successful employment is impossible without the patronage of relatives or friends. The main reasons for recognizing the importance of the help of relatives in the process of job search are highlighted: national and family traditions, as well as employment «by protection». The highest frequency of continuation of family professional traditions (professional dynasties) was recorded among young scientists and graduate students. Young people in the South of Russia prefer to look for a stable job, which at the same time should imply the possibility of changing it if necessary. The main factors of building a successful career have been identified, according to representatives of the modern young generation. The first places in this hierarchy are occupied by factors directly related to their own efforts and abilities.   Research prospects. The results of the conducted sociological research can become the basis for further study of professional socialization and behavior of modern youth in the labor market. Also, the empirical data obtained and the highlighted trends can be used in the work of career centers in universities.

Undergraduate socialization in medical education: ideals of professional physicians’ practice

AbstractA study of professional socialization in a medical education programme in Sweden is presented. The aim of the study was to explore ideals held within the educational practice concerning what constitutes an effective professional practitioner. Sixteen respondents from educational practice, eight teachers and eight students, were interviewed regarding their views on what constitutes ‘the ideal physician’, i.e. the desirable end product of medical education. Their responses were classified into six virtues: wisdom, discipline, humility, empathy, maturity and strength, each with corresponding vices. These virtues and vices reflect a desired direction for professional socialization during medical training and the professional performance of physicians. They also provide useful indicators of what has been described as medicine’s hidden curriculum. Implications for curriculum planning and the organization of learning in medical education are discussed.

Legal education as corporate ideology: Student adjustment to the law school experience

Sociological analyses of professional socialization have been guided by two major theoretical traditions. On the one hand, neo-Marxist and functionalist approaches posit a structural model of professional socialization that reproduces either class domination or social and cultural integration (Kennedy, 1982; Klare, 1982; Merton et al., 1957). Interactionists, on the other hand, emphasize the social processes of individuals employing various strategies and practices as they adjust to their professional training (Becker et al., 1961; Miller, 1970). Linking structural theories of the ideological nature of professional socialization with a close analysis of the actual internal dynamics holds the promise of enriching both streams of research. This paper explores this possibility in a case study of professional socialization in an elite law school. I examine the prevailing corporate ideology in this institution in tandem with the personal accommodations, adjustments, and management techniques of law students as they respond to this socialization process.

Competing commitments: Unanticipated problems of field research

This paper examines the central problems that affected a team research effort in a study of professional socialization. The researchers draw the reader's attention to the unanticipated difficulties they encountered in conducting the research—difficulties which, they suspect, are widely shared, but infrequently reported, in the discipline. The authors focus the analysis and discussion around the theme of competing commitments which affected the pace and direction of the research and created strains in team relations, leading eventually to the reconstitution of the team.

Social Work Education and Student Ideology: A Multivariate Study of Professional Socialization

Abstract Three socioideological measures were administered to 136 social work students, assessing their attitudes toward human nature and their etiological explanations of poverty and affluence in human lives. The study found that graduate students scored significantly more negatively and conservatively on the human nature scales than did undergraduates. Previous social work practice experience by students was found to be unrelated to the attitudinal traits measured. The study concludes with a discussion of both the theoretical and practical implications of the findings.

Attitudes of students entering prpfessional faculties

Abstract Students entering courses in engineering, law, medicine and teaching in 4 Australian universities were tested with a specially devised Attitude Inventory. Scores were obtained for: Intellectual Interests, Academic Activities, Political-Economic Liberalism, Social Liberalism, Pragmatism Dogmatism and Cynicism. 7 analyses of variance, using the scale scores as dependent variables, revealed significant effects due to faculty, university and interaction. Faculty differences which were the most numerous, and occurred with every scale, were considered in the context of a study of professional socialization.
