本研究采用社会认知职业生涯理论框架和Vroom的效度模型,考察了工科女生(n=87)与其他女生(n=2236)和男生(n=484)在不同职业成就上的重要性。工科女生在几项指标上与两组都有显著差异。本研究发现,就某些与职业相关的结果效价而言,选择工科的女生总体上不能代表女大学生,也不能代表总体上的工科学生。在三个指标上,它们甚至都不在两个比较组之间。
A social cognitive career theory framework and Vroom’s valence model are used to examine the importance that female freshman engineering students (n=87) place on various career-related outcomes, compared with other female freshmen (n=2236) and with male engineering students (n=484). The female engineering students were significantly different from both groups on several measures. This study finds that, in terms of certain career-related outcome valences, women students who choose engineering are not representative of women students in general, nor are they representative of engineering students in general. On three measures, they do not even fall between both comparison groups.
