Peer reviewedPulkkinen, Lea; Ohranen, Minna; Tolvanen, Asko – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1999
In Finland, 151 women and 160 men were followed from age 8 to 36. High career orientation was explained by high self-control. Social activity was related to female career orientation. Both stable and unstable careers were more strongly related to personality traits in women than men. (63 references) (SK)
