2005Levon T. Esters, Blannie E. Bowen · Journal of Agricultural Education · Global

While former students identified parents and friends as influential, and cited various reasons for their career paths, a discriminant analysis model could not distinguish between those who chose agricultural careers and those who did not after completing the secondary agricultural program.
