This study is to analyze the effects of medical students' social support and career barriers on career exploration behavior mediated by career decision-making self-efficacy.
We applied the t-test to investigate the difference among the variables based on gender and admission types. Also, we performed path analysis to verify the effect of perceived career barriers and social support on career exploration behavior with career decision efficacy as a mediator.
First, we noted statistically significant gender and admission type difference in social support, career barriers and career exploration behaviors. Second, social support and career barriers were found to influence career exploration behavior as a mediating variable for career decision-making self-efficacy.
Social support and career barriers as perceived by medical students influenced their career exploration behavior, with their decision-making self-efficacy serving as a full mediator. Therefore, this study has educational implications for career program development and educational training for career decision-making self-efficacy.
本研究旨在分析医学生的社会支持和职业障碍对以职业决策自我效能感为中介的职业探索行为的影响。
我们应用t检验来研究基于性别和录取类型的变量之间的差异。此外，我们进行了路径分析，以验证感知到的职业障碍和社会支持对以职业决策效能为中介的职业探索行为的影响。
首先，我们注意到在社会支持、职业障碍和职业探索行为方面，性别和录取类型存在统计学上的显著差异。其次，发现社会支持和职业障碍作为职业决策自我效能感的中介变量影响职业探索行为。
医学生所感知到的社会支持和职业障碍影响了他们的职业探索行为，其决策自我效能感起到了完全中介作用。因此，本研究对职业规划项目的开发以及职业决策自我效能感的教育培训具有教育意义。
