title: Stability of the Professional Development Assessment.
abstract: The Professional Development Assessment was constructed and pilot-tested with 76 students in three occupational therapy programs. A comparison of pretest and posttest scores yielded a significant correlation of .48, supporting the stability of responding over 1 to 2 years and suggesting usefulness of further development for evaluation of professional behaviors in students.
