Tracey, Terence J.; Sedlacek, William E.

Journal of the NAWDAC, v44 n2 p17-20 Win 1981

Occupational goals of students were related to their attitudes and expectations about college. Attitudes concerning selection of major and the career choice process were also related to occupational goals. Occupational goals not only are excellent predictors of future occupation, but also are part of the vocational decision-making process. (Author)
