Abstract

ABSTRACT Studies consistently show the demand among adolescents for structured career guidance support programmes. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the career guidance workshop intervention by examining changes in career self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and career goals with 47 high school students in grades 10–12 (aged 16–18 years). Based on a five-step model including self-awareness, career exploration, school and career paths, real encounters, and decision-making, the career guidance workshop combined lectures, discussions, individual activities, and pair and group work. Data were collected through career self-efficacy, outcome expectation, and career goal questionnaires and analysed using a pre- and post-test design with a single intervention group. Results suggested a significant improvement in participants’ career self-efficacy and their career goals. Although the findings on outcome expectations were not significant, the findings also showed an increase after the intervention. Thus, career guidance intervention is considered a valuable basis to improve adolescents’ career decision-making skills.

职业指导讲习班对青少年职业自我效能感、结果预期和职业目标的影响：一项干预研究

摘要研究不断表明，青少年对结构化的职业指导支持计划有需求。本研究通过考察 47 名 10-12 年级（16-18 岁）高中生在职业自我效能感、结果预期和职业目标方面的变化，评估了职业指导工作坊干预措施的有效性。职业指导工作坊以五步模式为基础，包括自我认识、职业探索、学校和职业道路、真实遭遇和决策，结合了讲座、讨论、个人活动、结对和小组工作。通过职业自我效能感、结果预期和职业目标问卷收集数据，并以一个干预小组为单位，采用前后测试设计对数据进行分析。结果表明，参与者的职业自我效能感和职业目标都有了明显改善。虽然对结果预期的调查结果并不显著，但也表明干预后的结果有所提高。因此，职业指导干预被认为是提高青少年职业决策能力的重要基础。
