Children's and Adolescents' Views of the Work World in Times of Economic Uncertainty.

Pautler, Katherine J.; Lewko, John H.

New Directions for Child Development, n35 p21-31 Spr 1987

Examines views of the work world held by children and adolescents who have experienced two types of economic conditions: (1) direct exposure to an unemployed father and (2) indirect exposure to negative economic conditions of the community. Results indicate communitywide economic conditions influence young people's views of the work world more than family circumstances. (Author/BB)
