Abstract	This study examined the nontraditional career choice goals of 302 Mexican American adolescent men using an extended version of Lent, Brown, and Hacketts (1994) career choice model. It was hypothesized that several background contextual variables (e.g., acculturation level, parental support, perceived occupational gender barriers) would predict nontraditional career self-efficacy. Nontraditional career self-efficacy was hypothesized to predict nontraditional career interests, and both nontraditional career self-efficacy and nontraditional career interests would predict nontraditional career choice goals. Results supported a modified path model. Mexican American adolescent mens nontraditional career self-efficacy was predicted by acculturation level and parental support. Additionally, nontraditional career self-efficacy predicted nontraditional career interests, and expressed choice of nontraditional careers was predicted by nontraditional career interests and father's career nontraditionality. Implications to career counseling with Mexican American adolescent men are discussed. (Contains 2 tables and 1 diagram.) (Author).
