Abstract/Summary
The purpose of this descriptive study was to explore the personal human values of Applied Corporate Management interns and Business Management department partner companies' supervisors as measured by the Rokeach Values Survey, a popular 36 item value instrument divided into two parts, with each part measuring different but complementary types of personal values. The Mann- Whitney U Test was used through the use of STATISTICA 7 computer software to reveal any significant in the personal human values of the two groups of workers.
The study of personal values of interns and supervisors showed that there are more similarities rather than differences in both their terminal and instrumental values. Hence, there is no significant difference on the personal values of the two groups of workers.
These results have several implications for both the interns and the supervisors because of the working relationships that are formed between them. Furthermore, these results also have effects on the university and the partner companies since schools want to maximize the learning of their students and the company with its innate desire for the productivity of its workers.
This study will also have implications of future researchers in the area of personal values, interpersonal relationship, and age and gender studies.
