在本文中,我们考虑了美国最近的社会变化是如何影响职业决策的。虽然青少年往往保持较高的教育和职业愿望,但从学校过渡的特点是缺乏制度支持,教育时间延长,在学校、工作和家庭的结合方面有多种选择。在这样的背景下,关于学校教育和职业生涯的决策有哪些主题?我们利用作为青年发展研究(n=1000)的一部分收集的定性访谈,这是一项关于青春期和成年早期工作的纵向研究。确定了多个主题,包括未实现的期望,决策的推迟,明确决策的转折点,以及资源和障碍,其中包括家庭,工作,学校咨询和教师。这些主题是当代职业决策的特点,因此将是未来研究的适当焦点。他们还建议,可能需要修改社会政策,以促进年轻人对职业身份和工作的追求。
In this paper, we consider how recent social changes in the United States may be affecting vocational decision making. While adolescents often maintain high educational and occupational aspirations, the transition from school is characterized by few institutional supports, the prolongation of education, and a multitude of options with respect to the combination of school, work, and family. In such a context, what themes characterize decision making about schooling and occupational careers? We draw on qualitative interviews collected as part of the Youth Development Study (n=1000), a longitudinal study of work through adolescence and early adulthood. Multiple themes were identified including unfulfilled expectations, the postponement of decisions, turning points that crystallized decisions, and resources and obstacles including, among others, family, work, school counseling, and teachers. These themes characterize contemporary occupational decision making and thus would be appropriate focal points for future research. They also suggest that social policies may need to be modified to facilitate the young people's quest for vocational identity and work.
