Gender differences in teaching career expectations were explored among 15-year-old students in 49 countries participating in the 2015 cycle of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Results revealed that boys were generally less likely than girls to expect to work as teachers, but the magnitude of the gender gap varied across countries. Boys were more likely to expect to work as teachers in countries with a greater representation of male teachers and in countries with higher teacher salaries. In countries with more egalitarian gender beliefs (i.e., beliefs and attitudes toward gender equality), both boys and girls were less likely to expect teaching careers, but this negative association was stronger for boys than for girls.

在参加2015年国际学生评估计划（PISA）的49个国家/地区的15岁学生中，探索了对教学职业期望的性别差异。结果表明，男孩通常比女孩期望担任教师的可能性要小，但是各国之间的性别差距的大小各不相同。在男教师代表较多的国家和教师工资较高的国家中，男孩更有可能期望担任教师。在性别平等观念（即对性别平等的信念和态度）更为平等的国家中，男孩和女孩都不太可能期望从事教学职业，但是这种消极的联系对男孩比对女孩的强烈。
