本文对超过 17,000 名年龄相隔 12 年出生的人(1958 年和 1970 年)进行了后续研究,调查了不断变化的社会历史背景下青少年职业抱负的形成和实现。两种类型的分析模型,中介模型和上下文系统模型。被用来分析社会结构影响青少年愿望和随后的职业成就的过程。这两个模型都表明,青少年的愿望与教育程度相结合是年轻人职业发展的主要驱动力,并且它们调节了社会经济背景因素的影响。情境系统模型是中介模型的详细阐述,为远端和近端情境的影响提供了额外的见解。相差 12 岁的年轻人成长经历的差异表明,社会历史背景在塑造职业发展过程中发挥着关键作用。对于后来出生的群体来说,教育证书的重要性已经增加,无论是在影响青少年的愿望还是预测成人的职业结果方面。 (C) 2002 年爱思唯尔科学(美国)。
In a follow-up study of over 17,000 individuals born 12 years apart (in 1958 and 1970) this article investigates the formation and realization of teenage career aspirations in a changing sociohistorical context. Two types of analytical models, a mediating model and a contextual systems model. were used to analyze the processes by which the effects of social structure influence teenage aspirations and subsequent occupational attainment. Both models suggest that teenage aspirations in combination with educational attainments are a major driving force in the occupational development of young people and that they mediate the effects of socioeconomic background factors. The contextual system model is an elaboration of the mediating model, providing additional insights into the effects of distal and proximal contexts. Differences in the experiences of young people growing up 12 years apart indicate that the sociohistorical context plays a key role in shaping occupational progression. For the later born cohort the importance of educational credentials has increased, both in influencing teenage aspirations and predicting adult occupational outcomes. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science (USA).
