Sex Differences in
TLDR
In this paper, a study suggests that there are sex differences in vocational attitude maturity, with the relationship being higher for males than for females, and the self-concept variables of self-satisfaction, family, and moral-ethical self were found to contribute to the attitude maturity of males.Abstract:
This study suggests that there are sex differences in vocational attitude maturity. In the four-school stratified sample of eleventh grade boys and girls studied, the girls scored significantly higher than the boys in vocational attitude. No sex differences in overall level of self-esteem, as measured by the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale, were found. For both sexes a significant relationship between the over all level of self-esteem and vocational attitude maturity was indicated, with the relationship being higher for males than for females. The self-concept variables of self-satisfaction, family, and moral-ethical self were found to contribute to the vocational attitude maturity of males. For females, the self-concept variables of identity and moral-ethical self contributed to their vocational attitude maturity.read more
