Abstract

Individuals differ in the strategies, self-efficacy beliefs, and difficulties that characterize their career decision-making process. Although some strategies are deemed adaptive, the differential links of career decision-making strategies to self-efficacy and difficulties, in general and in various cultural contexts, remain unclear. To address this issue, we investigated the associations of 12 career decision-making strategies with self-efficacy and difficulties among 414 adolescents and young adults in the cultural context of the French-speaking part of Switzerland. In doing so, we also sought to develop a French version of the Career Decision-Making Profiles questionnaire (CDMP-F) for assessing career decision-making strategies. Results confirmed the fit of the hypothesized 12-factor model underlying the CDMP-F and the adaptability assumption for six of 12 strategies: information gathering, locus of control, procrastination, speed of making the final decision, dependence on others, and desire to please others. Moreover, differentiated associations were uncovered: high procrastination and external locus of control were linked to lack of motivation; slow speed of making the final decision was linked to general indecisiveness; and high desire to please others was linked to external conflicts. Supporting the structural and construct validity of the CDMP-F and identifying differential associations, implications for research and practice are discussed.

瑞士法语青少年和青年的职业决策策略与职业决策自我效能和困难的关系

在职业决策过程中，个人所采取的策略、自我效能感信念和遇到的困难各不相同。尽管有些策略被认为是适应性的，但在一般情况下和不同文化背景下，职业决策策略与自我效能感和困难之间的不同联系仍不清楚。为了解决这个问题，我们在瑞士法语区的文化背景下，对 414 名青少年的 12 种职业决策策略与自我效能和困难之间的关系进行了调查。在此过程中，我们还试图开发一个法语版的职业决策档案问卷（CDMP-F），用于评估职业决策策略。研究结果证实，CDMP-F 与假设的 12 因子模型以及 12 种策略中的 6 种策略的适应性假设相吻合，这 6 种策略是：信息收集、控制欲、拖延、做出最终决定的速度、依赖他人以及取悦他人的欲望。此外，研究还发现了不同的关联：拖延症和外部控制欲强与缺乏动力有关；做出最终决定的速度慢与一般的优柔寡断有关；取悦他人的欲望强与外部冲突有关。本研究支持 CDMP-F 的结构和构造有效性，并确定了不同的关联，讨论了其对研究和实践的影响。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Career Assessment publishes methodologically sound, empirically based studies focusing on the process and techniques by which counselors and others gain understanding of the individual faced with the necessity of making informed career decisions. The term career assessment, as used in this journal, covers the various techniques, tests, inventories, rating scales, interview schedules, surveys, and direct observational methods used in scientifically based practice and research to provide an improved understanding of career decision-making. The focus is not just testing, but all those means developed and used to assess and evaluate individuals and environments in the field of career counseling and development.
