“…This use is similar to that discussed by Richardson (2017), who noted that counseling for work and relationship is "a selection at a point in time of a set of theories that both ground and inform practice" (p. 40). Similarly, Sampson (2017) noted that reciprocity between theory and practice is evident when counseling issues are used to refine theory and further inform practice. It is this connection between theory, research, and practice that strengthens the questions researchers can examine and provides a guide for practitioners in drawing from relevant theory to work with different clients.…”

“…An increasing body of research highlights the MSCI's usefulness with diverse population groups and career-related issues, demonstrating a strong reciprocal relationship between theory and practice (Sampson, 2017). The MSCI adolescent version has proved useful with disadvantaged (McMahon, Watson, Foxcroft, & Dullabh, 2008) and middle class (Kuit, 2005) South African adolescents as well as with Swiss adolescents who completed the MSCI German version (Schindler & Schreiber, 2015).…”

“…As per the discussion on the relevance of integrating theory, research, and practice described by Sampson (2017), the STF continues to guide theory integration, theory-informed practice, and theory-driven research. A strong community of practice, including academic researchers and practitioners from many countries, as advocated by Sampson (2017), continues to work collaboratively to refine the utility of the STF for theorists, researchers, and practitioners, and more importantly for clients.…”

“…A strong community of practice, including academic researchers and practitioners from many countries, as advocated by Sampson (2017), continues to work collaboratively to refine the utility of the STF for theorists, researchers, and practitioners, and more importantly for clients. A "useful theory" (Krumboltz, 1994, p. 27) enables us to answer practical questions related to accuracy, responsibility, comprehensiveness, integration, and adaptability.…”

“…Countering this trend are important innovations from Mark Savickas and Paul Hartung (2012) in their career construction theory, which has incorporated the notion of dynamic change into their formulations. In addition, the Florida State University team, who developed cognitive information processing (CIP) theory (Sampson, 2017;Sampson, Reardon, Peterson, & Lenz, 2004), has sought to expand the focus and inclusiveness of their theoretical contributions, culminating in some innovative practice ideas that are informed by, and in turn inform, theory and research.…”

A critical analysis of the history of the relationships among theory, research, and practice in vocational psychology is layered with complex influences that have been examined in depth in some illuminating contributions (O'Brien, 2001;Pope, 2015;Savickas & Baker, 2005). However, selected layers of this history have been obscured and need to be more fully explicated in order to understand the status of our field and its potential to be fully inclusive and relevant in the years to come. In this chapter, I use a historical lens coupled with a critical perspective in unpacking the relationships among theory, research, and practice in career development. Naturally, it is not possible to capture the depth and breadth of the history of our very diverse and rich field in one chapter. As such, I focus on carving out a specific niche among existing histories of vocational psychology by infusing a perspective informed by inclusiveness, social justice, and a broad, macro-level view of our discipline as the optimal lens with which to examine the history of our field. For readers interested in a more detailed analysis of the history of our field, I recommend the highly informative chapter by Savickas and Baker (2005) and a more recent chapter by Pope (2015), which I view as two authoritative accounts of the history of our field. Goals and AssumptionsThe goals of this contribution are to identify the complex nexus of relationships among theory, research, and practice that has characterized our field for over a century. To deepen our knowledge of these relationships, I propose that we expand the scope with which history is understood to encompass the macrolevel forces that have shaped our field. Many of these macrolevel forces have been identified in previous essays about the history of our field, including very thoughtful analyses of how the Industrial Revolution, the two world wars, and the growing role of technology have shaped our field (e.g., O'Brien, 2001;Pope, 2015). As I argue in this chapter, I believe our discipline was seduced by the economic boom of the post-World War II era, resulting in a more limited focus on people who had a relative degree of choice in their work lives.As in other historical analyses, it is important to acknowledge the values and assumptions that may have shaped the discourse about the relationships among research, theory, and practice in career development. The following points highlight the assumptions that guide this particular historical analysis:

Dysfunctional Career Thoughts and Perceived Quality of Parental Relationships in Adolescents With Attention‐Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is known to cause significant difficulties in interpersonal relationships. Empirical research in career development has demonstrated that close, supportive relationships are associated with positive vocational behaviors (Kenny et al., 2018). We examined dysfunctional career thoughts and perceived quality of parental relationships in high school students with ADHD. One hundred two adolescents (76 boys, 26 girls) with ADHD responded to measures of career thoughts and interpersonal relationship quality. Preliminary exploratory analysis, using multiple linear regression, showed that male participants' dysfunctional career thoughts were statistically significantly related to their relationships with their mothers. For female participants, relationships with fathers represented an area for further exploration. Results suggest that career professionals can enhance positive outcomes of decision‐making and problem‐solving issues in adolescence with additional focus on relational interventions. Future research should incorporate the influence of gender and race/ethnicity on crucial relationships and focus on paternal relationships using cognitive information processing–based interventions with this population.
