Mechanisms Underlying Sex Differences in Career Self-Efficacy Expectations of University Students.
Matsui, Tamao
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v45 n2 p177-84 Oct 1994
Data from Japanese university students (176 males, 210 females) showed that females had significantly higher self-efficacy for female-dominated occupations, significantly lower for male-dominated ones. Self-efficacy for male-dominated occupations was associated with instrumentality; for female-dominated occupations it was associated with both instrumentality and expressiveness. (SK)
