title: Predictors of career commitment and employment level of tertiary-educated Indonesian women.
abstract: This study investigated the relationships among education, liberal sex-role values, gender-role orientation (masculinity/femininity), career commitment, and employment level for a sample of 302 married Indonesian women.  All participants were tertiary educated and currently employed either as teachers in tertiary institutions or as managers in government or private enterprise.  Multiple regression analysis revealed that liberal sex-role values and masculinity were significant predictors of career commitment, whereas education was the only variable to significantly predict employment level.  Results are compared with previous research on predictors of career commitment and employment level in both Asian and Western cultures.  Directions for further research are discussed.
