This PhD research program aimed to fulfil three objectives: (1) develop a new measure to assess career calling in emerging adulthood, (2) apply a general goal-setting model to test cross-sectional associations between career calling, self-regulatory mechanisms (work effort, career strategies, emotion control) applied during goal pursuit, and perceived life satisfaction and employability using a sample of emerging adults, and (3) apply a calling-specific model of psychological career success to investigate longitudinal relationships among career calling, career goal-directed efforts (work effort, career strategies), and psychological career success variables (life meaning, career adaptability). This PhD thesis informs on a series of three studies reported as three individual journal articles that meet those objectives. |
