The impact future practitioners are likely to have on their chosen career field will undoubtedly depend on a variety of dynamic forces, beginning with the professional perspectives and values they bring with them in launching their careers as well as their ongoing professional socialization and experiences on the job. This online study of students worldwide sought to determine their attitudes and beliefs on critical issues, including ethics, professionalism, and social value. The responses from 122 public relations students represent universities in Germany, India, Italy, North Cypress, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and United States.
