Abstract
This study used a longitudinal quasi-experimental design to explore the intersection of self-regulated learning and career development, while validating a manualized college career course as an effective career intervention. A group of undergraduate students enrolled in a for-credit college career course was compared to students in the general student body on measures of career exploration, career commitment, and commitment resistance to observe whether participation in the career course was associated with growth toward vocational identity achievement as observed by significant increases in both career exploration and career commitment and significant decreases in commitment resistance. Multilevel modeling revealed that the treatment group experienced significantly more growth toward vocational identity achievement compared to the control group. Additionally, career metacognitions were observed to differentially impact the effects of the career course on career exploration, career commitment, and commitment resistance.
