dc.description.abstract | This study investigated the relative influence of factors and persons in college
major choice and procedural justice perceptions of 449 undergraduate students
enrolled in 1 private and 2 public universities in Turkey. Results showed that
students found themselves to be the most influential person in their choice of
college major, followed by parents/other family members. With regard to the
factors, interest in the subject, guaranteed employment, expected earnings in the
field, the university entrance exam score, and a prestigious career were ranked,
respectively. Striking differences were found among majors. Findings also
suggested that, whereas male and female students’ choices were influenced by
very similar factors and persons, female students declared more procedural
justice. | en_US |
