Choice of Vocation of rural Youth

Edhem Dilić

Sažetak

Noting the growing concern of modern sociologists with the 'choice of
vocation’ of young people, the author first points to the need for a more precise
definition of this question. The study of the question of 'choice of vocation' -—
particularly where rural youth is involved — cannot be' reduced to merely
establishing 'vocational aspirations’ (i. e. the vocation an individual would like
to achieve) but should also cover ’vocational expectations’ (i. e. the vocation
which an individual may expect or plan to achieve).
While in certain cases the vocational aspirations and the vocational expectations
of rural youth are identical, certain differences still remain which make
it necessary to make a distinction between these two concepts in empirical
investigations.
The author then goes on to study the results of an empirical investigation
entitled »The Social Position of Rural Youth« which give a certain idea of the
vocational aspirations and expectations of 1,713 people of 14 to 25 years of age
who live and work on private smallholdings.
In conclusion the author points to the importance and degree of dependence
of 'vocational expectations’ on certain factors which are preponderantly of a
personal or family nature.
