Exploring the Relationship Between Personal Values and Professional Attitude of Journalism Students. (English)

Numerous studies have investigated the correlation between personal values and the quality of education among journalism students. However, limited research has been conducted on the connection between personal values and the professional attitudes of journalists. To address this research gap, we conducted a survey among 45 students (representing 53.09% of all students) enrolled in the Journalism Program at MNUE (Mongolian National University of Education). The objective was to identify their unique values and define shared principles. The survey employed questionnaires that required participants to select three values from each of the following categories: livelihood, health, and intellect. These questionnaires were then processed using the SPSS-26 program, following the "Triads of Values of a Person" model established by previous researchers. The novelty and focus of this article are emphasized by the examination of the collected data in relation to professional education and students' attitudes towards training. The results revealed significant diversity in the selection of values within the Livelihood category, while values associated with health exhibited the highest frequency (n = 44 for "Health," n = 27 for "Freedom," and n = 25 for "Intellect and knowledge"), indicating a consistent system of values. The Intellect category demonstrated relatively common value selection. Considering the potential connection between these outcomes and the "attitude of a specialist journalist" within the journalism curriculum, an analysis was conducted. Based on the analysis, this article advances the notion that assisting students in establishing a professional attitude based on their personal values is more crucial than solely focusing on knowledge acquisition and skill development during their professional training.
