Factors Affecting the Choice of Schooling Tracts among Boys and Girls
Author(s):
Abstract:
Since any difference in human capital accumulation between male and female students prior to their enterance to higher education or the job market can lead to gender-based segregation in both education and employment, factors affecting the choice of schooling tracts need to be identified and compared between boys and girls. To this end, a sample of 900 high school sophomores qualified to choose any of the theory-based or practice-based tracts was selected, and then their gender related beliefs were assessed using a questionnaire. The data analysis revealed that among factors influencing the girl's tract choice employment potential, school administrators, gender-related beliefs, and attitude together explain close to %64 of the variance, while among boys, it is the combination of social pressure, peer pursuation, and personal aptitude/interest that explains close to %60 of the variance.
