Students as a whole identified intrinsic interest, high salary, contributions to society, and prestige as their 4 most important work values. Additional analyses found men more likely to espouse extrinsic values, women more likely to espouse social values, and students from median parental-income groups more likely to espouse intrinsic values. In light of these results, counselors are encouraged to place a greater emphasis on the role of work values in the decision-making process. Several major career development theorists have recognized that values play an important role in career counseling and in the career decision-making process (Dawis, 2001; Holland, 1997; Super, 1980). Work values refer to what a person wants out of work in general and also which components of a job are important to their work satisfaction (Dawis, 2001; Elizur, 1984). Work values have been viewed as critical to the career counseling process with college students (Luzzo, 2000). However, empirical studies examining college student work values have been limited with respect to vocational skills and interests. In addition, specific groups of students, such as those in their 1st year who are at a critical point in the career process, have received surprisingly little attention. The purpose of the current study is, therefore, to explore the general work values of 1st-year college students; to determine how these values differ according to gender, race, parental income, and educational aspirations; and to examine how the resulting findings may be applied to career counseling. Recent factor analytic studies have supported a stratified approach to measuring work values whereby values have been organized within four basic dimensions: intrinsic, extrinsic, social,
