title: [Motivation in the choice of profession by students of veterinary medicine].
abstract: Elucidated were the motives in choosing the profession with the student in veterinary medicine, stating the sociologic characteristic of the vet students in connection with the choice made. Stated was the effect of some factors that belonged to the social origin (so-called external factors) as well as the effect of the personal reasons for vocational orientation. The education at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine was also found to be of importance in this respect. It was established that the most effective external factor was the influence of the family circle, although it was not as significant as in other similar studies in terms of value. In most of the students in veterinary medicine the choice of profession was determined mainly by personal motives: the interest the students took in biologic sciences, the affection for animals, etc.,--which spoke of a decision-making of their own. The effect of institutions of the social past, such as education, school, teachers. Studies of professional orientation on the choice of a profession was said to be negligible. Negative deviations as to the stability of decision-making, particularly in the fourth year of education, were also established, and this made it necessary to combine professional training with didactical means in order to make it optimal.
