In the course of a study concerning the vocational self-concept of men occupied in female-dominated fields male nurses were questioned about a broad range of job related aspects: access to the profession, experiences in the work with patients and teammates, public image, socialization, job satisfaction and the like. The findings help to enlighten male nurses' views of this job and of themselves as its holders. The men perceive special handicaps and problems but opportunities as well. At the time of their vocational choice they aimed primarily at the social and not at the former or medical aspect; today it is still the first of those to which they attach importance. Working as a man in this female-dominated field turns out to be a special opportunity for individual personal growth.
在一项关于从事女性主导领域工作的男性职业自我概念的研究过程中，男护士们被问及一系列与工作相关的广泛方面：进入该职业的途径、与患者及队友合作的经历、公众形象、社交、工作满意度等等。这些研究结果有助于揭示男护士对这份工作以及对自身作为从业者的看法。这些男性意识到了特殊的障碍和问题，但也看到了机会。在他们做出职业选择时，他们主要看重的是社会方面，而非前者或医学方面；如今，社会方面仍是他们最为重视的。在这个女性主导的领域中作为男性工作，结果证明是个人成长的一个特殊机会。
