Predictors for Career Achievement in the Corporate Hierarchy
研究了客观与感知的职业成就同职业选择、成功标准、家庭变量和人口统计因素的关系,并检验了职业与个人的匹配模型,发现人口和家庭变量影响职业成就感知和客观指标,功能匹配模型得到支持。
This study investigates the interrelationships between objective and perceived career achievement and career choices, success criteria, family variables, and demographics, as well as examining vocational congruence between career and the individual. The congruence model is tested by using both objective and subjective measures. A sample composed of more than 200 managers from a variety of organizations revealed that demographic and family variables relate to individual perceptions of career achievement as well as to objective indicators of career achievement within a corporate hierarchy. While the applicability of the general congruence model in career research seems limited based on this study's result, the functional congruence model is supported with the data obtained. Implications of these results for research on careers and career counselors are discussed.
