The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of the Career Competence Program (Işık, 2010), developed based on social cognitive career theory, on the career competency decision and subjective well-being levels of high school students between the ages of 15-17. In other words, the career competence decision program developed for university students was tested for the adolescent sample group. From this point of view, the study group was determined with the easily accessible sampling method, and a total of sixty-eight (N=68) participants were formed, with thirty participants (n=30) in the experimental group and thirty-eight participants (n=38) in the control group using the random assignment method. Socio-Demographical Information Form, Adolescent Subjective Well-Being Scale and Career Decision Competency Expectation Scale were used to collect data. In this study, a 2X2 quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test and control groups was designed. 10-week Career Decision-Making Competence Program activities, 45 minutes each, were applied to the students in the experimental group. The data obtained in the research were calculated with descriptive analysis, pretest-posttest t-test analysis, ANCOVA analysis Spss Package Program. As a result of the analysis of the data, the hypotheses developed in the research were confirmed. Accordingly, it was determined that there was a significant increase in career decision competency expectations and subjective well-being of the participants in the experimental group who received career competency program training. Accordingly, the career competency decision program had a positive effect on the career decision competency expectations of adolescent students and increased their subjective well-being levels and life satisfaction. The results of the research were scientifically discussed and recommendations were developed for later researchers, school guidance services and career counselors. |
