520 $a This study was conducted to investigate the attitudes and preferences of students from mainland China and the United States about selected personal attributes, job characteristics, and gender-typed occupations. Data were collected from a total of 927 Chinese and American students in grades 7 and 11 in two schools in each country.
520 $a The 40-item School and Work Survey originally was developed in English and was translated into Chinese for use with students in China. Survey items were four-choice Likert-type items organized into three parts: student attributes, job characteristics, and occupational preferences. The survey was administered to students in both countries in their regular classrooms.
520 $a Responses for each part of the survey were analyzed by country, gender, and grade level using MANOVA followed by univariate F tests. Stepwise regression was conducted to examine the relationship between the characteristics measured on the survey and preference for gender-typed occupations.
520 $a Results revealed that American students had higher self-competence, valued the "power characteristics" of jobs (be a boss, make money, have an important job) more, and had less gender-stereotyped attitudes toward jobs than Chinese students. Chinese students had a stronger preference for self-control in school, felt less self-competent than American students, liked more challenge in school, and ascribed less importance to the particular characteristics of jobs than Americans.
520 $a Grade 7 students across both countries had higher self- competence toward school, liked challenge more, and wanted more external approval than grade 11 students. Grade 7 students also had more idealistic attitudes towards jobs, and felt more self-competent at both male and female jobs than their older counterparts. Older students valued power factors in jobs more than younger students.
520 $a Females across both countries wanted external approval, valued people-related job characteristics, and preferred traditionally female jobs, whereas males preferred traditionally male jobs. Females also were less gender-stereotyped than males in their judgments about the appropriateness of gender-typed jobs for both females and males.
520 $a The characteristic that consistently had the highest correlation with preference both for female jobs and for male jobs was perception of one's own competence for the job.
