Peer reviewedRice, George E.; And Others – Educational Research Quarterly, 1994
The Purpose-in-Life Test was given to 415 college students in developmental reading classes. Results were compared to those of studies from 1968 and 1981 to determine any changes in student feelings of apathy and meaninglessness. Means of all groups were approximately equal, indicating no changes in student apathy since 1968. (SLD)
