Abstract

This work is framed in the context of the study of the causal determinant of the vocational interests from a perspective social cognitive (Lent, Brown y Hackett, 1994). Considering the «vocational values» or vocational outcomes expectations as one of the cognitive mediators of the vocational interests (Hernández Franco, 2001), the study approaches the empiric verifi cation of the theoretical structure proposed by Bandura (1987) on the types of vocational consequences that the individuals advance in connection with their interests. The sample we have investigated consists of 1250 students of high school. The obtained results indicate that the types of students differ in connection with the vocational consequences that advance for the election of their vocational preferences can group in four factors of fi rst order that we have denominated: Altruism, Security, Prestige-Power and Independence. Also, a factorial analysis of second order has allowed us to carry out a new proposal of conceptualisation of this construct in two types of styles of anticipation of the vocational consequences of the students of secondary: intrinsic and extrinsic.
