尽管社会认知职业理论（SCCT）中的个人投入和背景变量被认为是影响职业兴趣和选择的关键因素，但研究很少关注这些变量在集体主义文化背景下的作用。本研究以12名15-17岁的台湾高中生为研究对象，采用质性研究方法，探讨他们在科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）领域的职业决策过程。数据分析产生了四个领域：个人输入，上下文变量，结果预期，和自我效能确定SCCT。这些结果为未来跨文化STEM职业发展研究提供了基础。启示强调了辅导员在鼓励集体主义文化背景的学生追求STEM职业的重要性。
Although personal inputs and contextual variables in social cognitive career theory (SCCT) are recognized as key factors that affect career interests and choices, research has given minimal attention to the role of these variables in a collectivistic culture context. We present a study examining science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) career decision-making process of 12 Taiwanese high school students aged 15–17, using a consensual qualitative research method. The data analysis resulted in four domains: personal input, contextual variables, outcome expectations, and self-efficacy identified by SCCT. These results provide a foundation for future research on cross-cultural STEM career development. Implications highlight the importance of counselors in encouraging students of collectivistic culture background to pursue STEM careers.
