Factors Influencing the Career Decision Status of Chinese American Youths
Ma, Pei-Wen Winnie; Yeh, Christine J.
Career Development Quarterly, v53 n4 p337-347 Jun 2005
The purpose of this study was to understand how intergenerational family conflict and relational-interdependent self-construal influence the career decision status of Chinese American youths. Participants were 129 Chinese American youths, with ages ranging from 14 to 21 years. Results from regression analysis indicated that high intergenerational family conflict was predictive of career indecision. High relational-interdependent self-construal, on the other hand, was predictive of career certainty. Implications for counseling and future research are also discussed. (Contains 2 tables.)
