Abstract

Cilj ovoga rada bio je ispitati obrazovne i rukovodeće aspiracije te utvrditi što najviše određuje aspiracije učenika završnih razreda srednje škole. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 980 učenika završnih razreda iz 40 srednjih strukovnih škola i gimnazija. Kao mjera aspiracija korištena je Skala profesionalnih aspiracija (CAS). Podaci su prikupljeni u sklopu projekta „Profesionalni razvoj u adolescenciji: razvoj modela tranzicije karijere adolescenata“. Potvrđena je dvofaktorska struktura Skale profesionalnih aspiracija te se čestice jasno razdjeljuju na faktor obrazovnih i na faktor rukovodećih aspiracija. Spolne razlike u aspiracijama nisu pronađene. Učenici različitih vrsta škola uglavnom se ne razlikuju prema obrazovnim i rukovodećim aspiracijama, izuzev učenika gimnazija koji imaju značajno više obrazovne aspiracije u odnosu na učenike ekonomskih škola. Rezultati regresijske analize pokazuju da se na temelju seta prediktora može objasniti 18% varijance obrazovnih aspiracija i 15% varijance rukovodećih aspiracija. Obrazovne aspiracije značajno predviđaju očekivanja roditelja o stupnju obrazovanja učenika (β=.22), prosjek školskih ocjena (β=.21), roditeljska podrška u razvoju vještina vezanih uz zanimanje (β=.13) i temeljna samoevaluacija (β=.11). Rukovodeće aspiracije značajno predviđaju temeljna samoevaluacija (β=.22), prihodi kućanstva (β=.17), roditeljska podrška u razvoju vještina vezanih uz zanimanje (β=.17), doživljeni socioekonomski status (β=-.13) čiji je efekt supresijski te prosjek školskih ocjena (β=.09).

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to examine the educational and leadership aspirations as well as determinants of high-school graduates' aspirations. The study included 980 high-school graduates from 40 high schools. CAS-Career Aspiration Scale was used as a measure for aspirations. The data were collected as part of the project “Vocational development in adolescence: setting the adolescent career transition model”. We confirmed the two factor structure of the Scale of professional aspirations and items clearly split between educational aspirations factor and leadership aspirations factor. Sex differences in aspirations have not been found. Students of different types of schools generally do not differ according to the educational and leadership aspirations, except for grammar high school students who have significantly higher educational aspirations in relation to students of high-school of economics. The results of regression analyses showed that 18% variance of educational aspirations and 15% variance of leadership aspirations can be predicted on the basis of a set of predictors. Parents' expectations about the level of education of students (β=.22), school grades (β=.21), parents’ support for adolescents’ career-related skill development (β=.13) and self-evaluation (β=.11) predict educational aspirations. Self-evaluation (β=.22), household income (β=.17), parents’ support for adolescents’ career-related skill development (β=.17), socioeconomic status (β=-.13) as suppressor variable and school grades (β=.17) predict leadership aspirations.
