DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WOMEN TEACHERS WHO DO AND WHO DO NOT SEEK PROMOTION

Abstract

This research study compares women elementary school teachers who have and have not applied for promotion. The variables considered include degree of family responsibilities, and extent of commitment to the roles played both inside and outside the home. A picture of the women applicant for promotion emerges. While she is as likely as other women teachers to follow the traditional marriage with children pattern, she does take a markedly different approach to her home life and responsibilities there.
