Ecological Correlates of Adolescents' Aspirations: Gender-Related Differences.

Marjoribanks, Kevin

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v10 n4 p329-41 Oct 1985

Support for learning, as perceived by 516 adolescents, was compared to data collected five years earlier on family characteristics, ability, achievement, and school attitude. Educational aspirations were related to parents' and teachers' support. Females' occupational aspirations were influenced by situational variables; males were also influenced by individual variables.
