Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study is to identify the latent profiles of high school students’ academic help-lessness and differences in career adaptability, and to explore the effects of GRIT, relationship with friend and re-lationship with teacher ad the predictors.
 Methods Questionnaire data from the 4th wave of Korea Children and Youth Panel Survey 2018 (KCYPS 2018) were analyzed. To examine the latent profiles, latent profile analysis(LPA), Chi-square test, multinomial logistic re-gression model(MLR) were used.
 Results First, as the result of LPA, three latent profiles were found called low level of academic helplessness group, mid level of academic helplessness group, and high level of academic helplessness group. Second, there was siginificant difference in the career adatability depending on the latent profiles. Low level of academic help-lessness group showed the highest career adatability and Low level of academic helplessness group showed the lowest career adatability. Third, as the result of MLR, GRIT, relationship with friend, and relationship with teacher had significant effects as the predictors, but their influence differed by the latent profiles.
 Conclusions The results of this study suggest that the career adaptability is different by latent profiles of academic helplessness. and different interventions are effective by the latent profiles. Our findings have important im-plications for interventions to alleviate academic helplessness and increase career adaptability in high school students.
