โœฆ Synopsis

The salience of five life roles for 171 Canadian teachers was investigated by administering the Life Roles Inventory and having the teachers keep a Daily Log for one week to indicate the time spent in each life role. Multivariate analysis was used to determine if the independent variables of sex, age, marital status, parental status would make a significant difference in the lifestyle profile of the teachers. The results were compared against two other major Canadian studies utilizing the Life Roles Inventory. Canadian teachers appear to have two significant life roles: work and home and family. Work is ranked first in terms of the temporal dimension whereas home and family is more significant in terms of the teachers' emotional involvement. This profile of salient life roles was consistent across all three Canadian studies for both males and females. Few significant differences were found in the lifestyle profiles of teachers categorized according to personal characteristics. Implications for career counselling using a life roles model are discussed. * p ~ .05; ** p -~ .01.
