In an attempt to identify attitudinal orientations that might be used as indicators of attrition, demographic, academic performance, and attitudinal data on 261 students enrolled in the Woodruff School of Nursing at Emory University, Atlanta, between 1968 and 1972, were studied. Traditional measures of scholastic aptitude were not found to be good indicators. The higher the father's educational attainment, the more likely attrition was to occur. The higher the mother's occupational status, the less likely attrition was to occur. Attitudinal measures used in the study seemed to have little direct impact on attrition.
为了确定可能用作流失指标的态度取向，对1968年至1972年间就读于亚特兰大埃默里大学伍德拉夫护理学院的261名学生的人口统计学、学业成绩和态度数据进行了研究。传统的学术能力测试方法并非良好的指标。父亲的教育程度越高，学生流失的可能性就越大。母亲的职业地位越高，学生流失的可能性就越小。研究中使用的态度测量方法似乎对流失率没有直接影响。
