Abstract
The present research investigated the role of career salience (or the perceived importance of work and a career) in occupational choice and occupational satisfaction. It was predicted that career salience would be positively related to the degree of self-occupational congruence attained in an occupational choice, and that the correlation between congruence and occupational satisfaction would be greater for high career-salient subjects than for low career-salient subjects. The first hypothesis was supported for males, and the second hypothesis received no support. The relationships between career salience and other vocationally related variables were reported and related to prior research.
