A Cross-Cultural Study of the Career Maturity of Korean and United States High School Students

Abstract: The present study aimed at conducting a cross-cultural comparison of career maturity between Korea and the United States. First, a Korean version of the Career Attitude Maturity Inventory (CAMI) was constructed. Then, an English version parallel to that Korean version was formed following three stages of procedure; translation, back translation, and field study. Finally, high school students of 11th grade from two different cultures (331 from Korea and 266 from the United States) were administered to the CAMI.… Show more

“…Super 's (1957, 1990) career development theory and its central construct of career maturity have received considerable attention across many countries, including the United States (e.g., Levinson, Ohler, Caswel, & Kiewra, 1998;Savickas & Hartung, 1996;Super, Osborne, Walsh, Brown, & Niles, 1992), Australia (e.g., Clayton & Fletcher, 1994;Creed & Patton, 2003;Patton & Creed, 2001), Canada (Perron, Vondaracek, & Skorikov, 1998), Korea (Lee, 2001) and Thailand (Hughes & Thomas, 2006). According to Crites (1976) the central concept for understanding career behaviour is career maturity.…”

“…De nombreux auteurs ont largement souligné les liens entre la réalisation d'un choix d'orientation et les ressources émotionnelles et cognitives de l'adolescent (Blustein, 2006 ;Dosnon, 1996 ;Forner, 2007 ;Rottinghaus, Jenkins, & Jantzer, 2009 ;Saunders, Peterson, Sampson, & Reardon, 2000). Dans le système éducatif sudcoréen, les lycéens présentent un niveau de bien-être relativement faible et des difficultés à élaborer un projet d'orientation (Ahn & Baek, 2013 ;Lee, 2001). Ce système éducatif est considéré comme très éprouvant pour la plupart des lycéens puisqu'il repose notamment sur une charge de travail écrasante et une pression scolaire très importante.…”

“…Il n'existe encore aucun programme d'aide à l'orientation scolaire et professionnelle obligatoire et systématique dans le cursus scolaire durant le cycle de l'enseignement secondaire (Hwang, Kim, Ryu, & Heppner, 2006). Les enseignants encouragent davantage les élèves à se focaliser sur leur entrée à l'université qu'à réfléchir à leurs aspirations professionnelles (Lee, 2001) où les conseils reçus se centrent sur les meilleures stratégies pour améliorer leur performance scolaire ou pour préparer les examens (OCDE, 2002). Une étude a d'ailleurs montré que les lycéens coréens présentaient une maturité vocationnelle plus faible que les lycéens américains (Lee, 2001), c'est-à-dire qu'ils seraient moins matures pour réaliser un choix d'orientation.…”

“…Thus, solely relying on individualsÕ cognitive aspects may not provide a complete picture of their career decisionmaking processes. For instance, even those students who have been identified as career-decided still report difficulties in relation to their career decision-making and often require additional services from career counselors (Hannah & Robinson, 1990;Lee, 2001). Such students feel uncertain whether the career paths they chose would satisfy their needs and expectations (Dziuban, Tango, & Hynes, 1994).…”
