Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the factorial validity of the decision-making style scales of the Assessment of Career Decision Making (ACDM-DMS). These scales are designed to measure rational, intuitive, and dependent decision-making styles. The responses of 819 undergraduate students were subjected to an exploratory iterative principal components factor analysis. Three factors were retained as the most clearly defined, interpretable solution. After orthogonal rotation, the factor structure that emerged corresponded closely to the three rationally constructed scales of the ACDM-DMS. Although gender differences were observed at the item and scale levels, the factor pattern was substantially similar for both sexes.
