The role of time perspective in the career choice of secondary school pupilsPienaar, Gregory Edward 02 1900 (has links)
Due to the fact that many of the secondary school pupils who
experience difficulty in choosing a career, also appear to have
problems with their time perspective, an investigation into the
possible link between these concepts was undertaken.
A literature study was done where the major dimensions of time
perspective were identified
continuity/directionality and
locus of control; optimism/pessimism;
structure. Analyses were done on the
principal factors influencing time perspective and career choice. A
reliable measuring instrument was developed in order to measure the
secondary school pupil's time perspective.
The results of the empirical investigation indicated that time
perspective does play a significant role in the career choice of
secondary school pupils. Gender and intellectual potential do not
appear to have a significant bearing on time perspective.
The educational implications of the findings are discussed, and
guidelines regarding methods of improving a child's time perspective
are given to both teachers and parents. / Psychology of Education / M. Ed. (with specialisation in Guidance and Counselling (Psychology of Education))
