Abstract

A pretest-posttest-control group design assessed the effects of a series of three 90-minute structured, career workshops on undergraduate career clients at the counseling center of a large urban university. Rotter's I-E Control Scale measured locus of control, the Career Maturity Inventory assessed career maturity and career indecision was measured by the Career Decision Scale. The effects of the intervention were examined using an ANCOVA. Theoretical relationships among the variables were explored using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficients. The findings indicate that the intervention increased students' career decidedness. Locus of control and career maturity were not changed significantly. Results also suggest that undergraduate career clients are a subpopulation of undecided students who are ready for career decision making.
