Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess the comparative effects of the Affective Vocational Education Program as a means of increasing the classroom performance, vocational maturity, and self-concept of school age parents. Related literature revealed the sparse amount of time and resources that advocates of school age parent programs devoted to helping pregnant teenagers understand themselves as worthwhile human beings and as future providers for themselves and their children. Yet, researchers pointed out the need for students to feel good about themselves and to be able to identify with a particular job. From the data collected and analyzed, it can be concluded that the Affective Vocational Education Program could be successfully used to improve vocational maturity and self- concept . More research is needed to determine what kind of program can be used to best meet the academic needs of school age parents.
