A Study of Cherokee and White Eighth Grade Student Career Development: Sex, Self-Concept and Attribution (Oklahoma)
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis study examined relationships between personality variables (self-concept and attribution of success), demographics (sex and ethnicity: Cherokee or white), and level of career development utilizing the model proposed by Crites. The subjects for this study were 48 students in the eighth grade in four rural Northeast Oklahoma elementary schools with a high concentration of Cherokee students. The measures utilized in the assessment of career development were: Planning Career Goals and the Career Maturity Inventory. In the assessment of personality the measures were: the Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale and a variation of the attribution scale developed by Farmer, Maehr and Rooney. The analyses to test the hypotheses were primarily correlations, multiple regression analyses, and discriminant analyses.
