Abstract

Moreover, the study will identify problem areas in these professions and opportunities for improving the quality of professional’s work. This study attempts to measure pro fessional’s individual attributes by using questionnaire developed by William Snizek in 1972 . This tool measures five factors of professionalism: organization as major referent, belief in public service, belief in self - regulation, sense of calling to the f ield and autonomy . Professionalism will be measured by calculating means of each factor and collective mean of factors for each profession . The study suggest that all under study professions have professionalism in them but there is room for improvement as well.
