Human service interns completing their four-year Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Tennessee participated in this study which focused on investigating student internship experiences from the perspective of three different internship stage models. The three models studied include those of Inkster and Ross (1998), Sweitzer and King (1999), and Kiser (2000). Findings provided insight as to students' levels of internship satisfaction and dissatisfaction during the internship. Data collected suggest each model has unique strengths and limitations. Recommendations are offered as to the effective use of each model. An eclectic use of the three models in pedagogy is supported
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
