Future Planning Both at School and in Other Contexts: The Case of Finnish and Polish General-Secondary and Vocational-School Students.
Malmberg, Lars-Erik; Trempala, Janusz
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v42 n2 p207-26 Jun 1998
Polish and Finnish high school students (n=352) from academic and vocational tracks reported on the future planning they did in different contexts and completed measures of self-esteem and control over the future. Findings suggest that future planning reflects general developmental patterns in both countries, while self-evaluation reflects educational track and sociocultural factors. (SLD)
