Abstract
This study, based on responses from 69 dual-career college and university administrators, examined the relationship between perceived career satisfaction and (a) career salience, (b) career demand, and (c) use of eight role-management strategies. Analysis showed that career salience, career demand, and use of the strategy of organization jointly explained 39% of the variance in career satisfaction.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
