Maladaptive Perfectionism

[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] In this study, Social Cognitive Career theory (SCCT; Lent, Brown, and Hackett, 1994; 2000) was the conceptual framework to understand Asian American students' career development process that incorporates cultural (person and contextual level). Due to the strong cultural emphasis on family obligations for achievement in academic and vocational realms, perfectionism is a salient construct among Asian American students (Chao and Tseng, 2002) and thus was included to explore its influence on Asian American students' career decision self-efficacy and vocational outcome expectations. The relationships among the study variables were explored through structural equation modeling analysis. As expected, a positive relationship between adaptive aspect of perfectionism and career variables (i.e., career decision self-efficacy and vocational outcome expectations) was found. This is in line with Asian culture in which there is the tendency to set high standards and strive to reach that standard to honor the family (Wang, 2010). Also, consistent with expectations, a negative association of maladaptive perfectionism on career decision self-efficacy and vocational outcome expectations was found. Career decision self-efficacy and vocational outcome expectations play a crucial role for successful career performance and outcomes (e.g., Gysbers, Heppner, and Johnson, 1998; Kim, 2000; Swanson and Woitke, 1997). Some studies in the past have focused on only the negative aspect of perfectionism (Blatt, 1995), limiting and invalidating its importance in certain cultures. However, considering these significant implications of career decision self-efficacy and vocational outcome expectations on career outcomes, the study's results suggest that it is important for career counselors and psychologists to intervene to increase adaptive perfectionism and lower maladaptive perfectionism. The research model was significant even after acculturation and enculturation were controlled, which was previously considered to be major constructs influencing Asian American students' career development. So the findings present a new aspect of understanding Asian American students' career development process, stressing the importance of perfectionism among this group of students. Suggestions for future research directions, clinical implications, and limitations are further provided.

Performance Competencies

AbstractThe Merit System is a reflection of professional staffing management where the placement of employees and officials uses performance competencies and track records as a means of measuring appointments. But so far the system merit has not been fully implemented even though if this system is implemented, it can produce qualified official figures and have good performance other than that it will not interfere with internal conditions because it has continuity with the old officials. Practices that occur are politicization of the State Civil Apparatus. Merit violations are usually like people being demoted without clear reasons and mutations. New regional heads usually dismantle their employees with people he knows. Everything is still related to retribution and revenge, so that this article is carried out with the aim of knowing how the implementation of the Merit System in ASN career development and the factors that influence the implementation of Merit System can realize the transparency of ASN career coaching using Qualitative analysis methods. So that it is expected to contribute ideas to the government in the study and implementation of a better Merit System. Keywords: Merid System and State Civil Apparatus AbstrakMerit sistem merupakan cerminan manajemen kepegawaian yang profesional dimana penempatan pegawai dan pejabat menggunakan kompetensi kinerja dan track record sebagai alat ukur pengangkatan. Namun sejauh ini merit sistem belum sepenuhnya dilakukan padahal Jika sistem ini diterapkan, dapat menghasilkan figur pejabat yang mumpuni dan memiliki kinerja bagus selain itu tidak akan mengganggu kondisi internal karena memiliki kesinambungan dengan pejabat lama. Praktek-praktek yang terjadi adanya politisasi terhadap Aparatur Sipil Negara. Pelanggaran Merit itu biasanya seperti orang diturunkan jabatannya tanpa alasan yang jelas dan mutasi. Kepala daerah baru biasanya membongkar pegawainya dengan orang-orang yang dia kenal. Semuanya masih berkaitan dengan balas budi dan balas dendam, sehingganya tulisan ini dilakukan dengan tujuan mengetahui Bagaimana implementasi Merit System dalam  pembinaan karier ASN serta Faktor yang mempengaruhi penerapan Merit System dapat mewujudkan transparansi pembinaan karier ASN dengan menggunakan Metode analisis Kualitatif. Sehingga diharapkan dapat memberikan sumbangan pemikiran terhadap pemerintah dalam pengkajian dan pelaksanaan Merid Sytem kearaha yang lebih baik. Kata Kunci: Merid System, Aparatur Sipil Negara

Contextual factors can play an important and influential role in the career development of Asian American students. The purpose of this study was to examine how specific cultural factors, such as ethnic identity, internalization of Asian American stereotypes, Asian values, parental influences, and perceived barriers, predicted Asian American college students’ self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and interests in occupations and academic areas in which Asian Americans are highly represented. Two social cognitive career theory models were tested in this study: the first model examined how distal and proximal contextual influences predicted self-efficacy and interests in occupations with high Asian American representation and the second model examined how distal and proximal contextual variables predicted math and science self-efficacy, outcome expectations, goals, and intentions. Three hundred and eighty-one Asian American college students participated in this study. The findings from path analyses found a strong fit for the first model, suggesting that distal and proximal contextual factors predicted self-efficacy and interests in occupations with high Asian American representation. An adequate fit was found for the second model. The findings from this study provide psychologists and counselors with a more nuanced understanding of how career decisions are made for Asian American college students.
