KW  - Career development, Parental support, Hearing loss, Expectations
N2  - THE STUDY examined the contribution of parents’ occupational status and expectations regarding persons with hearing loss to career-related support they provide their deaf and hard of hearing (dhh) adolescent children. Thirty-eight parents completed the Evaluation of Occupational
Competence Scale (Weisel & Cinamon, 2005), the Evaluation of
Family Competence Scale (Caprara, Regalia, Scabini, Barbaranelli, & Bandura, 2004), the Career-Related Parent Support Scale (Turner, Alliman- Brissett, Lapan, Udipi, & Ergun, 2003), and a background questionnaire.
Parents’ occupational expectations were positively correlated
with their family expectations regarding deaf persons. Parents’ occupational
status contributed to expectations of success for deaf persons in
prestigious occupations with high communication demands. Different
types of expectations contributed to career-related parental support.
Implications for theory and practice are discussed
