Gender, mathematics achievement, and the educational and occupational aspirations of Canadian youth.

Shapka, Jennifer D.; Domene, José F.; Keating, Daniel P.

Pages: 27 –54

Although some of the influences on women's career outcomes are encountered after entering the workforce (e.g., the "glass ceiling," balancing work and family responsibilities), other influential factors are established earlier in life, during childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. This...

Mathematics as the critical filter: Curricular effects on gendered career choices.

Ma, Xin; Johnson, Willis

Pages: 55 –83

Our search of the research literature for studies on the effects of mathematics coursework on career and major choices revealed a lack of empirical evidence, highlighting the significance of the present analysis. First of all, although we can infer indirectly from a number of existing studies...

What motivates females and males to pursue sex-stereotyped careers?

Watt, Helen G.

Pages: 87 –113

I argue from both social justice and human resource perspectives that we should be concerned with the educational opportunities and outcomes of both boys and girls. Further, I argue the importance of retaining attention to girls' academic well-being alongside current emphases focused on boys....

Gendered high school course selection as a precursor of gendered careers: The mediating role of self-concept and intrinsic value.

Nagy, Gabriel; Garrett, Jessica; Trautwein, Ulrich; Cortina, Kai S.; Baumert, Jürgen; Eccles, Jacquelynne S.

Pages: 115 –143

In the present study, we focus on the role of domain-specific academic self-concepts and intrinsic values, which are assumed to mediate the effects of gender. To this end, we integrate two important theoretical models: Marsh's (1986) internal/external frame of reference model (I/E model) and...

Testing for time-invariant and time-varying predictors of self-perceived ability in math, language arts, and science: A look at the gender factor.

Byrne, Barbara M.

Pages: 145 –169

Self-perceived ability has been identified as having a compelling influence on gendered career outcomes. The question of why and how this phenomenon occurs continues to be an enigma of enormous interest. One methodological ploy that can be effective in addressing this issue is the use of latent...

A sociomotivational analysis of gender effects on persistence in science and technology: A 5-year longitudinal study.

Larose, Simon; Ratelle, Catherine F.; Guay, Frédéric; Senécal, Caroline; Harvey, Marylou; Drouin, Evelyne

Is the desire for a family-flexible job keeping young women out of male-dominated occupations?

Frome, Pamela M.; Alfeld, Corinne J.; Eccles, Jacquelynne S.; Barber, Bonnie L.

Pages: 195 –214

Although women made tremendous gains in entering traditionally male-dominated professions during the 20th century, gender differences have persisted through the turn of the millennium in adult occupational pursuits. This chapter investigates a cohort of young women who, when they graduated from...

Gender-typed occupational choices: The long-term impact of parents' beliefs and expectations.

Chhin, Christina S.; Bleeker, Martha M.; Jacobs, Janis E.

Pages: 215 –234

This chapter presents three studies that provide evidence for the important role of parents' beliefs and expectations in shaping their children's occupational choices from adolescence through young adulthood. Gender differences in the occupational choices of men and women can be seen beginning...
LitStream

Biological contributors to gendered occupational outcome: Prenatal androgen effects on predictors of outcome.

Berenbaum, Sheri A.; Bryk, Kristina L. Korman

Pages: 235 –264

The goal of this chapter is to describe evidence that gendered interests and characteristics are influenced by biology, particularly the levels of sex hormones present during prenatal development, and to consider how gendered occupational outcomes might arise through joint effects of biology and...
LitStream

Gendered occupational outcomes from multilevel perspectives: The case of professional training and work in Turkey.

Tatli, Ahu; Özbilgin, Mustafa F.; Küskü, Fatma

Pages: 267 –297

Turkey presents a two-track and polarized profile in terms of gender equality in occupational choices and outcomes. Although the proportion of women in higher education, including technical and scientific subjects, and professional work compares well with that in Europe, the same pattern of...
