| Abstract: | Women professionals in teaching who had had substantially different experience in terms of certain social background variables were compared on the criterion of their commitment to a professional career. The results indicated that certain social background factors resulted in women teachers being significantly different on the criterion of career commitment. Mother's work orientation, social class background, source of financial support in college, and current marital status were all significantly discriminating background factors. Type of college attended was not a significantly discriminating factor. |
