Abstract

AbstractThe current study examines hope and career adaptability as two potential mediators, parent–child closeness as a moderator of the relationship between career‐related parental support and life satisfaction. A total of 521 vocational high school students responded to this study. The result revealed that hope and career adaptability independently and serially mediated the relationship between parental career‐related support and life satisfaction. Moreover, the moderating effect of parent–child closeness on career‐related parental support and hope was found. When students' parent–child closeness was high (vs. low), the indirect pathway linking parental career‐related support to hope to career adaptability to life satisfaction was stronger. This study enlightens parents should give career‐related support to their children and establish a close bond with children.
