Educational and Occupational Goals: Male versus Female Black High School Seniors.

Dawkins, Marvin P.

Urban Education, v15 n2 p231-42 Jul 1980

Findings suggest that among Black high school seniors, there are no sex-related differences in aspirations and expectations for educational advancement. There are significant differences, however, in occupational goals and career values. These differences are not explained away when students' social class, academic aptitude, and community size are considered. (Author/GC)
