Horizontal segregation based on gender is still present inside Initial Vocational Education and Training (hereinafter, IVET) programs. Year after year in Spain (MEFP, 2014, 2020), the distribution of IVET students within professional branches, is in some branches, clearly related to gender. This is similar in other European countries. The purpose of this study was to find statistical relationships between the variable sex and the vocational decision-making of IVET students. To achieve this, a descriptive study was carried out using a mixed method —qualitative and quantitative— and including the application of an ad hoc questionnaire addressed to IVET students from a county located in Galicia (Spain). The sample was made up of 267 IVET students —of a total population of 676— being 61% men and 39% women. The results show that the distribution of the surveyed students according to the professional branches showed that there is a statistically significant relationship between this variable and sex (X2 = 171.142; p = .000). With regard to the knowledge that students declare about other IVET programs located inside their reference territory —and to which they could have access instead of their current program— it is found that there is a link between the perception of such knowledge and sex (X2 = 8.001; p. = .005). Concerning the reasons for choosing the current IVET program, if we analyse each of them according to the sex variable, we can affirm that reasons linked to vocation and randomness are both related to sex. This is not the case with the rest of the reasons given. In conclusion, it seems very important to persist in investigating male and female decision-making in relation to their vocation and further studies, being conscious that the reality of sex segregation is something that goes beyond and covers different spheres and experiences of the person. |
