Neuware - What do children know about work, careers, and related topics What is the pattern of growth in values, attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge Using quantitative and anecdotal evidence gathered from interviewing over 900 grade-school students in five New Jersey communities, the authors analyze childhood socialization to the concept of work.Existing literature on this topic focuses on the critical years of oc-cupational choice. But Goldstein and Oldham strongly suggest that much of the child's work-related development has already occurred prior to entry into secondary school, and that 'career educa-tion' must receive increased em-phasis during the elementary years.
