This study examined factors influencing Filipino and Chinese American college students' major, and the relationship between socio-cultural (i.e., behavioral acculturation, values enculturation, parental involvement, financial and prestige considerations), and psychological (i.e., interest and self-efficacy) factors, to college major of choice. Expressed interest (college major and occupational intention) and inventoried interest, along with inventoried self-efficacy were also examined. Using a partial replication and extension of Tang, Fouad, and Smith's (1999) study, 69 Filipino and 54 Chinese American students from a West Coast university were surveyed.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study examined factors influencing Filipino and Chinese American college students' major, and the relationship between socio-cultural (i.e., behavioral acculturation, values enculturation, parental involvement, financial and prestige considerations), and psychological (i.e., interest and self-efficacy) factors, to college major of choice. Expressed interest (college major and occupational intention) and inventoried interest, along with inventoried self-efficacy were also examined. Using a partial replication and extension of Tang, Fouad, and Smith's (1999) study, 69 Filipino and 54 Chinese American students from a West Coast university were surveyed.
520 $a Major findings indicated that although there were no ethnic differences in choosing traditional college majors (scientific/technical/business) between Filipino and Chinese American participants, a substantial number of them indicated majors in traditional fields. When both ethnic groups were combined, results indicated that once psychological factors were accounted for, socio-cultural variables did not significantly relate to traditional major of choice, with the exception of financial consideration. The addition of socio-cultural factors, however, was associated with an increase in participants' self-efficacy in traditional areas, increasing the odds of majoring in these areas. Thus, when both ethnic groups were combined, socio-cultural factors increased the predictive ability of self-efficacy. When ethnic groups were analyzed separately, however, results indicated that ethnicity differentiated the reason for their traditional choice; in general, the explanatory factors for Chinese Americans were socio-cultural in nature, while psychological factors, namely self-efficacy, accounted for Filipino Americans' traditional major of choice.
520 $a Ethnicity did not differentiate students' inventoried vocational self-efficacy in any of the six Holland types. There were also no ethnic differences on inventoried career interests, except for interests in the Enterprising theme. Both groups also indicated high measured interest and self-efficacy scores in nontraditional areas. Results indicated no significant socio-cultural differences between the two ethnic groups except for behavioral acculturation and parental satisfaction with participants' major.
520 $a Lastly, present findings demonstrated that Asian Americans did not indicate a high inventoried interest in Investigative fields even though they indicated a high expressed interest in this area. Chinese and Filipino Americans, however, displayed measured and expressed interest congruence in Enterprising and Social fields, respectively. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
