LeVasseur, Michal L.

Explores sixth- and ninth-grade students' knowledge of geography and geography-related careers, focusing on sex-related differences. Discusses the results, including: (1) no significant differences between male and female students for overall and subarea scores; (2) sex-related differences emerged when ethnicity was considered; and (3) students were least knowledgeable about physical geography.
