The purpose of this paper is to clarify the influence of linguistic profiling on perceived employability. In doing so, we recognize multiple factors that can contribute to this relationship. Using the systems theory framework (STF) of career development, we categorize these factors based on whether they primarily reside within the societal system, the organizational system, or the individual system. Subsequently, we construct and present an open systems model that depicts the influence of linguistic profiling on perceived employability in context with other societal, organizational and individual factors.
DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: The STF provides a theoretical perspective on how to contextualize linguistic profiling and perceived employability within the scope of career development. We employed an integrative literature review method to locate existing research studies that investigated the influences of linguistic profiling and perceived employability. The literature search process, coupled with inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulted in 46 publications retained for analysis.
Findings provided evidence of language ideologies that contribute to linguistic profiling globally. Linguistic profiling usually results in reduced perceived employability. There was variation in the research findings based on the context of the research studies. The context consisted of the societal, organizational and individual systems in which the research study was conducted. Findings supported our construction of an open systems model of the influence of linguistic profiling on perceived employability, which is rooted in the STF.
ORIGINALITY/VALUE: This study highlights the negative influence of linguistic profiling on perceived employability. It also demonstrates how the STF can be used to contextualize the linguistic profiling problem within societal and organizational systems.
本文旨在阐明语言剖析对感知就业能力的影响。在此过程中，我们认识到多种可能促成这种关系的因素。运用职业发展的系统理论框架（STF），我们根据这些因素主要存在于社会系统、组织系统还是个人系统中对其进行分类。随后，我们构建并呈现一个开放系统模型，该模型描述了语言剖析在与其他社会、组织和个人因素相关的背景下对感知就业能力的影响。
设计/方法/途径：STF提供了一个理论视角，说明如何在职业发展范围内将语言剖析和感知就业能力置于具体情境中。我们采用综合文献综述方法来查找调查语言剖析和感知就业能力影响的现有研究。文献检索过程，结合纳入和排除标准，最终保留了46篇出版物用于分析。
研究结果提供了有助于全球范围内语言剖析的语言意识形态的证据。语言剖析通常会导致感知就业能力下降。根据研究的背景，研究结果存在差异。背景包括进行研究的社会、组织和个人系统。研究结果支持我们构建一个基于STF的语言剖析对感知就业能力影响的开放系统模型。
原创性/价值：本研究强调了语言剖析对感知就业能力的负面影响。它还展示了如何利用STF将语言剖析问题置于社会和组织系统的背景中。
