The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of major satisfaction, career decision efficacy and career attitude maturity of engineering college students to the career decision level. A total of 432 engineering students(male=339, female=96) completed major satisfaction, career decision efficacy, career attitude maturity and career decision level tests. The analysis showed the following findings. First, there are significant correlations among major satisfaction, career decision efficacy, career attitude maturity, and the career decision level. Second, the major satisfaction explained 2% of engineering college students' the career decision level. The career decision efficacy explained 21% of engineering college students' the career decision level. And the career attitude maturity explained 53% of engineering college students' the career decision level. The results of the study suggested that when career guidance and counseling program for the engineering college students, it is important to consider the factors to improve career self-efficacy and career attitude maturity.

We note that the time of adolescents is very important time for obtaining informations about their jobs, exploring and making appropriate their career decision. In order to understand the career decision level of adolescents, we needed a study on effects of personal variables and family variables affecting the career decision level. For this, we provide direct, indirect and total effects of family variables and personal variables on the career decision level using the path analysis. Therefore, in this study, we give the real usefulness for making a different diagnosis and strategy solving some problems of career decision level.

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of appearance management behaviors on career decision level among female college students. Based on previous studies on appearance management behaviors and career decision level, the items for a questionnaire were developed. For the study, we conducted a questionnaire survey among 292 students from women's university in Seoul. Factor analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed using SPSS statistics 23. Results of this study are as follows. First, the factor structure of appearance management behavior had three factors: 'fashion & hair,' 'skin & plastic surgery,' and 'body shape.' The reliability and validity of the factor structure were proved. Second, a significant correlation was found between sub-factors in appearance management behaviors. Career decision level showed a significant correlation only with body management factor. Third, the appearance management behavior of female college students was found to have a partially significant effect on career decision level. For higher grade students, fashion & hair factor and body shape factor had positive effects on career decision level. For lower grade students, body shape factor had a positive effect on career decision level while skin & plastic surgery factor had a negative effect on career decision level. Therefore, to increase career decision level, managing appearance through keeping fit body shape is crucial. This study also suggests that as one elevates to a higher grade, the importance of management and keeping interest toward fashion is important.

The purpose of this study is to identify the difference between the current retention level and the required level of engineering students' career competency that they think they need based on their perceptions. Ultimately, the results of this study are used as basic data when designing the major/general education program and the curricular/extra-curricular career program. The task of this study is to identify the difference between the current retention level and the required level of engineering students' career competency. And based on this, it is to confirm the educational needs of engineering students for the career competency. For this purpose, literature research on career competency education in universities was reviewed in the theoretical background. Next, previous studies on career competency and sub-competence derived from career competency-related studies and detailed questions were analyzed. Based on this, an initial evaluation tool for career competency of engineering students was developed. Finally, through expert review, a career competency evaluation tool with a total of 43 items in 10 competency groups was developed. A career competency evaluation questionnaire was conducted for 197 engineering students who participated in the 2022 Engineering Education Festa, and as a result of the IPA analysis, 'global competency' was found to be the competency with the largest difference between importance and execution. Next, 'major job competency' and 'career development competency' appeared in order. Reflecting the results of this study, it is expected that mutually organic design of competency-based liberal arts curriculum and major curriculum that can cultivate global competency, major job competency, and career development capability will be carried out through learning activities and field practice.

The study was conducted to understand the effect of major satisfaction of university students majoring public health administration on the career decision level and career preparation behavior by the medium of career decision-making self-efficacy. The analysis result showed that major satisfaction and career decision-making self-efficacy, major satisfaction and career decision level, major satisfaction and career preparation behavior had a statistically significant positive (+) correlation respectively. In addition, the result of a path analysis using AMOS indicated that their major satisfaction level is found to have a direct and indirect effect on career decision level and indirect effect on career preparation behavior, while career decision-making self-efficacy is directly effective against career decision level and career preparation action and major satisfaction exerted an impact on career decision level and career preparation behavior by the medium of career decision-making self-efficacy. Therefore, to improve the level of public health administration university student's career decision and career preparation behavior, systematic and detailed programs and effective plans to improve their major satisfaction and career decision-making self-efficacy will be necessary.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relation between career options and career barriers of fisheries and marine science college students. The subjects in this study were 1,309 students(male 628, female 681), who were analyzed with 6 career items and career barrier inventory. Data analyses were conducted using t-test, One-way Analysis of Variance, Two-way Analysis of Variance. The results of the research are as follows. First, the career barriers factors that students experienced a lot were future anxiety and lack of career informations. Accoding to sex, there was no meaningful differences on the career barriers, but accoding to grades, there was meaningful differences on the career barriers. Second, career barriers showed high level in case that students chose their majors accoding to the factors of professors, score level and others' admonition. And career barriers was higher in cases of the students who had the level of below the common satisfaction on their majors, who had a minor or temporary absence from school because their majors were unsatisfied, who took courses with their pals, who chose their jobs in terms of pay level and working region, and who had uncertainty on their apptitude and interesting.

The purpose of this study is to describe the mediating effect of career decision level on the relationship between career decision self-efficacy and career preparation behavior of nursing students. The subjects of the study were data collected from 108 nursing students in 3rd and 4th grade and analyzed. The factors affecting career preparation behavior of nursing college students were career decision self-efficacy (β= .54, p<.001) and career decision level (β =.23, p=.009). Career decision-making levels were found to play a partial mediating role in the relationship between efficacy and career readiness behavior (Z=2.49, p=.006). The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to improve the career decision-making self-efficacy and the level of career decision-making for effective career preparation behavior, and it is necessary to develop strategic career guidance and program that reflects this.
