A review of literature on the socialization of graduate students in higher education was conducted and eleven elements of socialization were identified. Most of the research/writing on these eleven elements was found to have been evaluated and discussed with respect to how the findings could be generalized across disciplines. However, Biglan's findings suggest that differences inherent to certain disciplines will occasion differences in socialization processes and structures. Biglan identified three dimensions into which different disciplines fall. He labelled these dimensions "hard/soft," "pure/applied," and "life/non-life."Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a A review of literature on the socialization of graduate students in higher education was conducted and eleven elements of socialization were identified. Most of the research/writing on these eleven elements was found to have been evaluated and discussed with respect to how the findings could be generalized across disciplines. However, Biglan's findings suggest that differences inherent to certain disciplines will occasion differences in socialization processes and structures. Biglan identified three dimensions into which different disciplines fall. He labelled these dimensions "hard/soft," "pure/applied," and "life/non-life."
520 $a Biglan's work indicates that inherent characteristics of academic discipline affect differences in the socialization of faculty and of departmental chairpersons. No studies were found which investigated if this dynamic is also applicable to graduate students. The current study was an attempt to determine if the socialization processes and structures differ from discipline to discipline in a manner consistent with Biglan's predictions.
520 $a Socialization can be affected by pre-existing characteristics of individuals who enter a socializing environment, the processes and structures established to affect socialization, and the product resulting from the interaction effect of the first two. This study was limited to the study of the second characteristic.
520 $a The processes and structures related to four of the eleven elements of socialization were statistically compared across the disciplines. The elements utilized for study were sequestration, paradigm, apprenticeship, and sanctioning and the disciplines used were chemistry and educational administration.
520 $a The resultant profiles of student responses from each discipline were compared via t-tests. These tests indicated that significant differences in the intensity of socialization processes and structures by element do exist between the two disciplines. The survey items representing each element were also tested individually to determine which items produced statistically significant results. Statistical tests were also conducted to determine the effects of selected control variables. It was determined that the differences between the disciplines is predominantly an effect of discipline.
