This mixed methods study investigated the occupational/career decision-making processes of intellectually gifted adolescents from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. In the first phase, interview data from 26 Australian adolescents, who were simultaneously intellectually gifted and of low socioeconomic status background, were analyzed using grounded theory to develop four models of occupational/career decision-making processes. In the second phase, a model that incorporated all of the constructs and relationships identified in each of the four models developed in the first phase of the study was tested and refined using structural equation modeling procedures on survey data collected from 917 economically disadvantaged intellectually gifted Australian adolescents. The resulting qualitatively developed and quantitatively refined model allowed for a clearer and a more complete understanding of the occupational/career decision-making processes of intellectually gifted adolescents from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

来自经济贫困背景的有智力天赋的青少年的职业/职业决策过程：混合方法视角

这项混合方法研究调查了来自经济弱势背景的有智力天赋的青少年的职业/职业决策过程。在第一阶段，使用扎根理论分析了来自 26 名同时具有智力天赋和社会经济地位背景低的澳大利亚青少年的访谈数据，以开发四种职业/职业决策过程模型。在第二阶段，使用结构方程建模程序对从 917 名在经济上处于劣势、有智力的澳大利亚人收集的调查数据进行测试和完善，该模型包含了在研究第一阶段开发的四个模型中的所有结构和关系。青少年。
