The differences between boys and girls were statistically significant in terms of overall self-awareness, overall career-awareness, self-values, self-responsibility, and self- exploration, knowledge of working world, and exploration of working world. 4. The differences among birth order were statistically significant in terms of overall career-awareness, but not statistically significant in terms of levels of career-awareness. 5.
