One step behind
Clustering Individuals as a Way of Dealing with Multiple Predictors in Occupational Stress Research
As the number and type of variables thought to affect the amount of stress experienced by an individual in the workplace increase, and as these effects are often found to be nonlinear and to interact with each other, the forms of statistical analyses employed present different costs and benefits. The use of cluster analysis as a preliminary means of categorizing individuals is described as the least artificial and empirically most accurate means …
Achievement motivation theory and occupational choice
Two studies are reported which aimed to answer several questions relating to Atkinson's model of achievement motivation. Firstly, how successfully the theory can predict the occupational choices of two different populations and what changes, if any, need to be made to the model to make it more suited to such predictions. Several conceptual errors were found in the theory which make it unsuitable in its present form for predicting occupational cho…
A‐level Expectancies and University Aspirations of Males and Females
S ummary . This study, utilising both an examination of the national statistics and a detailed survey of a smaller group of sixth form students, draws attention to the sex differences still found in expected and actual examination results. In gross numbers of students and passes, girls are likely to reach equality with boys up to A‐level in the fairly near future. However, two areas of sex differences, the sex stereotyping of subject choices and …
Gender dependency of occupational deviance and role overload as determinants of fear of success imagery
The effects of occupational deviance and role overload on Fear of Success (FOS) scores were investigated following Bremer and Wittig's (1980) finding that these inflate FOS scores when a story cue describing a female character is given to respondents of both sexes. This finding was replicated by the present study. However, stories were also given that described events involving a male character. In this condition occupational deviance and role ov…
