Child Development, v72 n4 p1247-65 Jul-Aug 2001
Examined relations among parenting dimensions and adolescents' occupational aspirations related to academics and sports. Found that parents' values predicted youths' values directly in the academic domain. Fathers' behaviors mediated the relation between parents' and youths' sports values. Identification was directly related to adolescents' values. Findings were similar for African Americans and European Americans and for males and females. (Author/KB)
