Abstract	This study investigates the influences of gender and work experiences on career maturity, as well as the relationship between advisory mentoring and career maturity. Analytical results from 528 full-time MBA students are summarized as follows: (a) gender exerts significant differences in advisory mentoring functions (instrumental and career-related functions) but not in career maturity, (b) work experience is significantly related to planfulness, (c) psychosocial function is a strong predictor of planfulness and independence, whereas career-related function is a strong predictor of both information gathering and involvement. The results are interpreted and implications discussed in terms of advisory mentoring behavior and career counseling of MBA education. (Contains 2 tables.) (As Provided).
