Variables associated with the relational value-orientations of pupils and teachers in urban Newfoundland
The study examined the Relational value-orientations of a selected group of teachers and pupils from urban Newfoundland. Data were collected by means of written responses to a Teacher's Questionnaire and to a Pupil's Questionnaire, by 292 teachers and 584 pupils. The participating teachers...
