The underlying mechanisms (i.e., linking and conditioning mechanisms) in the association between perceived parental career expectation and adolescents' career development remain understudied. Under the guidance of the social cognitive career theory, this study used three-wave longitudinal data from 3,196 Chinese adolescents ( = 15.55 years old, = .44; 52.8% girls at Wave 1) to fill such gaps. Results indicate conditional indirect effects. Specifically, the indirect association of perceived parental career expectation with adolescents' career adaptability and ambivalence via adolescents' career-planning and goal-setting self-efficacy was stronger when perceived parent-adolescent career congruence was higher than that when perceived parent-adolescent career congruence was lower. Such effects were identified even after various career-related parenting practices were controlled for. Implications for theory, future research and interventions were also discussed.

感知到的父母职业期望与青少年职业发展之间的关联的潜在机制（即联系和调节机制）仍研究不足。本研究以社会认知职业理论为指导，使用来自 3196 名中国青少年（第 1 波年龄 = 15.55 岁，M =.44；女生占 52.8%）的三波纵向数据填补了这一空白。结果表明存在条件间接效应。具体来说，当感知到的父母-青少年职业一致性高于感知到的父母-青少年职业一致性时，感知到的父母职业期望通过青少年的职业规划和目标设定自我效能感与青少年职业适应性和矛盾性的间接关联更强。即使在控制了各种与职业相关的教养实践后，仍然可以识别出这些影响。还讨论了理论、未来研究和干预的意义。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2024 APA，保留所有权利）。
