Values Concerning Employment-Related and Family-Related Occupations: Perspectives of Young Canadian Male Medical Students

Based on qualitative interviews with 11 male medical students at one Canadian university, this paper explores the values influencing current and anticipated participation in family- and employment-related occupations. Men increasingly express desire for greater family involvement, yet participation has not necessarily altered. In this study we found men's occupational participation is shaped by their values concerning gender roles, a commitment to fairness, a deep sense of responsibiIity in all of their roles, and a desire for occupational balance which does not necessarily result in achievement of such balance. We suggest that while an egalitarian gender ideology, desire for fairness and a sense of responsibility toward family encourage participation in family-related occupations, at the same time gender traditionalism and professional responsibilities, as well as a demanding professional culture, mitigate such involvement.
