| dc.description.abstract | The study aims to connect language, perception and career choice. It examines linguistic interaction concerning career selection and its possible impact on female adolescents’ academic preferences and aspirations. It also explores inter/intra narrative discursivity and develops a narrative corpus on young women’s career choices in small towns.The analysis of this study focuses on the career choice narratives as well as their possible effect on female adolescents and on their career constructs, academic preferences and aims in the Kasur district. Since language structure is vital to the system of interaction (Giddens, 1984), this study relies on the Cognitive linguistic approach to CDA (Hart, 2014) in order to examine how linguistic manifestations conjure image schemas to entice female students’ “career self-efficacy beliefs, outcome expectations and personal goals”. Thus, conjoins language, perception, and career choice. | |
