- Description: M.Ed. (Educational Leadership) , One of the most important choices that a student has to make is that of a career. Because of the financial implications, it is of the utmost importance that a student makes the right choice. To be able to do so, the student must know him-/herself and must be aware of the demands of the specific career. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a student's self and career perception have an influence on the successful completion of his/her studies. The point of departure of this study is the perceptual tradition and self-concept theory. This tradition operates on the premise that all behaviour is a function of the individual's perceived world. Each person has a unique system of perceptions about the self and this self-concept generates behaviour and is selective as far as the assimilation of other perceptions is concerned. This tradition maintains that each person is a conscious agent who considers, constructs, interprets and then acts. Research was undertaken to investigate the self and career perceptions of students and the effect that they may have on successful career choices. The most important findings were: The students all have a positive self-concept as well as a positive perception of the future. They all feel that the economy and politics will not have a negative influence on their future career. Students who have made a successful career choice had a thorough knowledge of their future careers and of their own ability, likes, dislikes and interests whereas students who have made a wrong choice did not have such knowledge at first. The following is recommended: The vocational guidance teacher should guide pupils towards in-depth self-perceptions and career perceptions.

Die ontlokte potensiaal van die brein en sekere temperamentsdimensies

- Description: D.Litt. et Phil. (Psychology) , The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether robust and verifiable evoked potential components exist which can reliably be associated with temperament. The evoked potential (EP) procedures included the auditory brainstem response procedure (ABR), the auditory N1-P2 middle latency response procedure (AMR) utilising different stimulus intensities, the auditory P300 response utilising frequent and rare repetitions of stimuli (the "oddball paradigm" ) and a number of composite measures of the AMR and P300. The temperament dimensions which were assessed, were sensation seeking, measured by Zuckerman's sensation Seeking Scale (SSS) Form 5, stimulus augmenting-reducing measured by Vando's Augmenting-reducing scale, properties of the nervous system, measured by Strelau's Temperament Inventory (STI) and introversion-extroversion, measured by Schepers' Personality Questionnaire. The statistical population chosen for the research was the first year Behavioural Sciences students of 1991 and 1992 at a South African university (N = 640). A sample of 391 students (81 males and 210 females, aged 17 to 22 years) was randomly selected from the statistical population. All the Subjects completed the Psychological battery (the various temperament scales) and the Neurophysiological battery (the various evoked potential procedures). The reliabilities of the various scales and procedures were established prior to administering the batteries. Hotelling's T-test was used to determine if the vectors of means of the males and females in respect of the subtests of the Psychological battery and the measurements of the various EP procedures differed statistically significantly or not. Student's t-test was used to determine in respect of which variables the genders differed. All Subsequent analyses were performed separately for the males and females. Three contrasting groups with low, medium and high scores, respectively, were formed with regard to each temperament trait.
