Abstract

In this study, we examined the correlation between gender stereotypes and career orientation amongst students. In the study, we examined if there is a connection between gender roles (masculine, feminine, androgyny), stereotypical views, and decisions during career orientation. In the research, we used online and paper-based questionnaires amongst disabled, abled, and LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender) students. The received data shows that there is a link between gender roles and stereotypical views. Also regardless of population and views two-thirds of the students categorize careers strictly feminine or masculine, which propounds the need for further pedagogical work in this area.
