Betz, Ellen L. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1984
Proposed a revised system of classifying women's careers and applied the proposed system in an investigation of the career patterns of women college graduates (N=498) of the 1960s 10 years after their graduation. Results indicated that women are making definite strides toward building a relatively strong career base. (LLL)
