Role of gender and construct type in vocational complexity and choice of academic major.

Abstract

This study was designed to replicate and extend two sets of earlier findings reported by Bodden and his colleagues. With regard to the first of these, our results, in contrast to Bodden's, failed to reveal any relation between aspects of vocational structure and the selection of an appropriate academic major. Second, the replicability of Bodden and James's (1976) finding that providing occupational information decreases vocational differentiation was investigated. Results of our study again confirmed this decrease in differentiation, but only when subjects used experimentally provided constructs, not when they used their own, personally elicited constructs
