The Effect of Cognitive Style and Manifest Anxiety on Intellectual and Vocational Interest in Adolescents
Grimm, Veronika E.; Nachmias, Chava
Journal of Vocational Behavior, 10, 2, 146-155, Apr 77
The relationship of cognitive and emotional factors to concurrent fields of interest and future vocational preferences were examined in 1,000 Israeli high school children. Divergent thinking, anxiety, occupational preference, and fields of intellectual interest were measured. A strong and significant negative correlation was found between manifest anxiety and divergent thinking. (Author)
