Produktbeschreibung
This study sought to determine the effectiveness of
balancing career goals and family among Jamaican
professional women and to ascertain their
perceptions regarding their academic institution s
support. The study surveyed 237 professional women
who were studying with a family. Four hypotheses
were analyzed using descriptive statistics and
ANOVA. The findings revealed no significance in the
level of importance they place on advancing their
career goals and their perceptions of the
challenges that exist in being a wife and having a
job. No significant difference was found among
Jamaican professional women s perception of the
family support they receive as it relates to
balancing family life and career goals. Finally, the
findings revealed that there is a significant
difference in the perception of students across the
campuses concerning the unavailability of after
school child care services. This study will add to
the body of research and will help therapists,
employers and school administrations understand the
challenges that these individuals are faced with,
thus seek to strategize and find solutions to help
this large majority.
