Item Restricted Correlates of job match probability(2012-04) Ferrer, Feliche Anne E.; Sta. Maria, Carissa Iris S.; Pernia, Ernesto M.This study aims to look into the various factors behind job match in relation to academic program completed. The data utilized in this research were collated through an online survey of the year 2009-2010 graduates of the University of the Philippines, Diliman. Graduates from three colleges of the university were selected for the survey, namely, the College of Engineering (Computer Science), the College of Mass Communication, and the School of Economics. Five variables were hypothesized to be significant correlates of job match: (1) gender, (2) academic program, (3) educational attainment of the mother, (4) educational " attainment of the father, and (5) academic honors. The logistic regression was used for the analysis. The results show that gender, educational attainment of the mother, and academic honors are not significant correlates of job match. On the other hand, academic program, and educational attainment of the father prove to be significant correlates of job match.
