Abstract
This study investigated the influence of parental moral values on students’ subject choice and career aspirations in Obubra Local Government Area of Cross River State. The study adopted the Ex-post facto design for investigation. A sample of 200 students was drawn from a population of 779 SS3 students through random sampling. Students’ Subject Choice and Career Aspiration Inventory (SSCCAI) was the instrument used for data collection. Two hypotheses were tested at .05 level of significance. Data collected were analyzed statistically using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results revealed that parental moral values did not significantly influence students’ choice of school subjects and career aspirations respectively. Based on these findings, conclusion was drawn and some recommendations made.
