Abstract
Service-learning is increasingly used in college courses to promote engaged citizenship. This qualitative study examined the relationship between students’ values and faith perspectives and their perceptions of a required service-learning project in an introductory psychology course. Results suggest students’ attitudes toward service-learning are shaped by personal values and religious faith.
