Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine some of the factors that motivate the nonprofessional (nutrition aide) in the West Virginia University Cooperative Extension Service. Certain attitudes expressed by the nonprofessional concerning job satisfaction may provide implications for supervision. Effective human relations play a major role in the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program. If the supervisor can understand the job needs and job expectations of the Nutrition Aide, he or she will be better able to help the Aide develop into a more effective and productive employee.
