Abstract

The notion of career is no longer understood as a progressive advancement within the same organization, but rather as a lifelong dynamic transition between multiple jobs. Lee et al. (2021) developed Career Crafting Assessment as a means of identifying the proactive behaviors that people engage in when developing their career paths. The aim of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the Romanian version of the scale. In Study 1 ( N = 938), Confirmatory Factor Analysis supported the four-factor model of the scale. The results supported the measurement invariance for gender, but not for age. The internal consistency of the scale was adequate. In Study 2 ( N = 344), we found significant positive correlations between career crafting and two similar constructs, namely job crafting and organizational career management, supporting the convergent validity of the scale. In Study 3 ( N = 213), the criterion validity of the scale was supported by significant positive correlations between career crafting and four of its possible outcomes, namely performance, work engagement, perceived meaningfulness of work, and person-job fit. Our results are in line with the findings of Lee et al. (2021) and suggest that the Romanian version of the instrument is valid.

罗马尼亚版职业技能评估：心理测量特性

职业的概念不再被理解为同一组织内的进步，而是多种工作之间的终身动态过渡。Lee等人（2021）开发了职业技能评估，作为一种识别人们在发展职业道路时积极主动行为的手段。本研究的目的是测试罗马尼亚版量表的心理测量特性。在研究1（N=938）中，验证性因素分析支持量表的四因素模型。结果支持了性别的测量不变性，但不支持年龄的测量不变性。量表的内部一致性是足够的。在研究2中（N=344），我们发现职业塑造与两个类似的结构，即工作塑造和组织职业管理之间存在显著的正相关性，这支持了量表的收敛有效性。在研究3（N=213）中，该量表的标准有效性得到了职业塑造与其四种可能结果之间显著正相关的支持，即表现、工作投入、工作的感知意义和个人与工作的适合性。我们的结果与Lee等人的发现一致。（2021）并表明罗马尼亚版本的文书是有效的。

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.
