Vicarious and Direct Achievement Patterns in Adulthood
Lipman-Blumen, Jean; Leavitt, Harold J.
Counseling Psychologist, 6, 1, 26-31, 76
This paper presents a typology of direct and vicarious achievement orientations relevant to adult problems. Direct and vicarious achievement patterns are related to sex role socialization and sex-linked occupational choice. Recommendations are developed for reevaluating and redesigning adult occupational and interpersonal roles which would take into account achievement orientations. (Author)
