摘要

调查儿童时期职业抱负的研究很少。此外，大多数关于职业抱负的研究都集中在增加从事代理工作的女性人数上。在目前的工作中，我们在两项针对幼儿的研究中调查了与社区职业愿望相关的因素（研究1:159名儿童[84名男孩，75名女孩]，Mage = 5.51 年，SD = 0.37；研究2:96名儿童[48名男孩，48名女孩]；Mage = 9.44 年，SD = 1.91）。我们发现，只有年龄较大的儿童在共同愿望方面存在性别差异。在这两个样本中，以及在将两个样本合并时，儿童报告的社区职业性别刻板印象越强烈，渴望社区职业的男孩（女孩越多）就越少。在合并样本中，社区自我认知介导了儿童性别和职业愿望之间的关系。最后，职业的感知地位与年龄较大的儿童的共同愿望呈正相关。

What do I want to be? Predictors of communal occupational aspirations in early to middle childhood

Research investigating occupational aspirations in childhood is scarce. In addition, most research on occupational aspirations has focused on increasing the number of women in agentic jobs. In the present work, we investigate factors associated with communal occupational aspirations in two studies with young children (Study 1: 159 children [84 boys, 75 girls], Mage = 5.51 years, SD = 0.37; Study 2: 96 children [48 boys, 48 girls]; Mage = 9.44 years, SD = 1.91). We found gender differences in communal aspirations only among the older children. In both samples, as well as when combining the two samples, the stronger the communal occupational gender stereotypes children reported, the less boys (and the more girls) aspired toward communal occupations. In the combined sample, communal self-perceptions mediated the relationship between child gender and occupational aspirations. Finally, the perceived status of the occupations was positively associated with communal aspirations among older children.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Behavioral Development is the official journal of the International Society for the Study of Behavioural Development, which exists to promote the discovery, dissemination and application of knowledge about developmental processes at all stages of the life span - infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age. The Journal is already the leading international outlet devoted to reporting interdisciplinary research on behavioural development, and has now, in response to the rapidly developing fields of behavioural genetics, neuroscience and developmental psychopathology, expanded its scope to these and other related new domains of scholarship. In this way, it provides a truly world-wide platform for researchers which can facilitate a greater integrated lifespan perspective. In addition to original empirical research, the Journal also publishes theoretical and review papers, methodological papers, and other work of scientific interest that represents a significant advance in the understanding of any aspect of behavioural development. The Journal also publishes papers on behaviour development research within or across particular geographical regions. Papers are therefore considered from a wide range of disciplines, covering all aspects of the lifespan. Articles on topics of eminent current interest, such as research on the later life phases, biological processes in behaviour development, cross-national, and cross-cultural issues, and interdisciplinary research in general, are particularly welcome.
