Horne, Marcia D.; Kaufman, Richard

NABE: The Journal for the National Association for Bilingual Education, v3 n3 p61-69 Spr 1979

Discusses possibly significant effect of social acceptance and the negligible effects of culture and sex on attitudes of 271 bilingual and monolingual fourth grade students towards occupational groups. Discusses children's early awareness of society's attitudes towards occupations and the probable existence of a reasonably stable hierarchy of occupational preference. (SB)
