Abstrakt: This study was undertaken to investigate whether career decision self-efficacy (CDSE) could mediate the relationships of career adaptability with emotional intelligence and with self-esteem among university students. Using cluster random sampling, a total of 205 university students aged 22 to 24 years (M age = 23.0, SD =.875) were selected as respondents. The strongest linear relationship was found between CDSE and career adaptability (r =.568, p =.001). Besides CDSE the main predictor of career adaptability (β =.354, p =.000), emotional intelligence (β =.282, p =.000) and self-esteem (β =.145, p =.019) also contributed significantly to career adaptability. CDSE was found to significantly mediate the influences of emotional intelligence and self-esteem on career adaptability. These results suggest that undergraduate students' emotional intelligence, self-esteem and CDSE are substantially associated with career adaptability, which plays an important role in workforce efficiency and graduates' employability.
