Decision-Making Style and Career Decision-Making Behaviors among School Leavers.

Hesketh, Beryl

Journal of Vocational Behavior, v20 n2 p223-34 Apr 1982

Examined the relationship of self-rated decision style to vocational decision-making behaviors among school leavers (N=169) before leaving school, and to the implementation of their plans after leaving school. Support was found for the active-passive dimension in decision style and for the advantage of using an active logical style. (Author)
