Summary

This data collection was designed to determine whether management training affected attitudes and behavior of the public managers in Kentucky state government in a way predicted by a theoretical construct. Respondents were questioned about their attitudes towards the importance of management knowledge and skills in their present jobs, the importance of training programs to their growth as public managers, and the effect of training programs on their work. In addition, data were gathered regarding respondents' professional activities and views on public service. Background information presented includes the respondent's sex, ethnic origin, education attainment, management level, number of years with state government, recent position change, and income level.
