| Abstract: | Ss were 306 women who had been college students in the mid-thirties and who had been studied 25 yrs later and reported on by D. P. Campbell (1965). They were assigned to 5 vocational pattern groups on the basis of their work histories. Of 29 characteristics that were analyzed statistically, 15 significantly discriminated among the 5 groups. A woman's career pattern could not be predicted from data available at the time she entered college but was predictable from other data known 5 yrs later. The most significant data were related to marital situation and education. (15 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
