AbstractMany SMP students choose mayor because of their good marks. They are not interested in that field, they just follow what their friend chooses, follow their teacher recommendation, or follow their parent’s advice, but not doing career exploration in the first. This research intended to examine the role of career exploration behavior in mediating social support and career decision making self-efficacy. Data collected from a student in grades 8 and 9 (n= 142), with convenient sampling techniques. The measuring used in this study were Carrier Decision Making Self Efficacy-SF, Adolescent Social Support Scale, and Career Exploration Survey, that have been adapted to Bahasa. Regression analysis and Sobel test showed that career exploration behavior significantly mediating the relationship between social support and career decision making self-efficacy. Social support from a parent, teacher, and friend is a trigger to emerge the career exploration behavior, which finally forms the career decision making self-efficacy. Implications, limitations, and suggestions are discussed.Keywords: Career decision making self-efficacy; Career exploration behavior; Junior high school student; Social support AbstrakBanyak siswa SMP memilih jurusan karena nilainya memadai di bidang tersebut. Padahal belum tentu sebetulnya ia berminat, mereka hanya mengikuti pilihan teman, menuruti rekomendasi gurunya, ataupun mengikuti saran orang tua, tanpa melakukan eksplorasi karier terlebih dahulu. Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji pengaruh perilaku eksplorasi karier dalam memediasi hubungan dukungan sosial dan keyakinan diri dalam pengambilan keputusan karier. Pengambilan data siswa kelas 8 dan 9 (n= 142), dengan teknik convenience sampling. Alat ukur yang digunakan adalah Carrer Decision Making Self Efficacy-SF, Adolescent Social Support Scale, dan Career Exploration Survey, yang sudah diadaptasi kedalam Bahasa Indonesia. Hasil uji regresi dan uji Sobel menunjukkan perilaku eksplorasi karier signifikan memediasi hubungan dukungan sosial dan keyakinan diri dalam pengambilan keputusan karier. Dukungan sosial yang diterima dari orang tua guru, dan teman adalah pemicu munculnya perilaku eksplorasi karier, yang akhirnya membentuk keyakinan diri dalam pengambilan keputusan karier. Implikasi, keterbatasan penelitian, dan saran untuk penelitian selanjutnya didiskusikan.Kata kunci: Dukungan sosial; Keyakinan diri dalam pengambilan keputusan karier; Perilaku eksplorasi karier; Siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the role of mastery goal orientation, support for career development, career decision-making self-efficacy and engineering interest in career adaptability for engineering students. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 307 Korean engineering students from two universities. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze data and examine the relationships among the variables. Findings The results indicated that the level of mastery of goal orientation and support for career development significantly affected career decision-making self-efficacy. Engineering students’ career decision-making self-efficacy also positively influenced their engineering interests and career adaptability. Finally, the students’ engineering interest positively affected their career adaptability. Originality/value This study demonstrated that important factors for career planning and development need to be successively considered during the career choice process by linking it to career decision-making self-efficacy, engineering interest and career adaptability (career choice action), in consecutive order.

The Relationship

We explored the mediating effect of decision-making self-efficacy in the relationship between undergraduates' perceived career-related peer support and career exploration. Participants were 650 junior and senior undergraduates from 6 public universities in Shanghai, China. The key results were as follows: (1) career information and suggestion, emotional support, and peer role models were the 3 dominant factors of career-related peer support; (2) career-related peer support was positively and significantly correlated with career exploration; and (3) career decision-making self-efficacy mediated the relationship between career-related peer support and career exploration. Specifically, career information and suggestion and peer role models provided proximal and distal support, promoting individuals' career exploration not only directly but also indirectly through career decision-making self-efficacy. In comparison, emotional support from peers provided only distal support, promoting individual career exploration indirectly through career decision-making self-efficacy. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings, study limitations, and future research directions are discussed.

Career Concern

Career commitment refers to individuals’ dedication to their career; in the field of vocational psychology, career commitment is considered a vital factor for promoting a sustainable career. The current study examined a mediation model of career concern related to career commitment with career exploration and Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy (CDMSE) as two mediators. The participants were 1105 high school students (males = 594, females = 511) recruited from three main cities in Jiangsu Province, China. Results indicated that the hypotheses were all confirmed: the direct effect of career concern on career commitment was significant (β = 0.598, p < 0.001); the indirect effect of career concern on career commitment through career exploration and CDMSE was also significant (β = 0.255, p < 0.001); and career exploration and CDMSE mediated the relation from career concern to career commitment. Finally, the authors discussed the implications of the findings which could be applied to improve a high school student’s career commitment and the sustainability of career development. The limitations of the study and the future research needed to complement the current work are also discussed.
