Abstract
Career decision-making process (CDMP) is an individual skill in determining career decisions. During crisis development, transition-exploration adolescent may have difficulty in determining career goals. Two aspects stabilizer CDMP i.e.vocational identity ([VI], internal aspect) and parents’ involvement in adolescent career issues (external aspect). This study investigated parental involvement in three forms (support, interference, lack of engagement) of the variable parental career-related behaviors (PCB). Based on previous research, the VI role to CDMP can be enhanced through the positive role parents. Therefore, this research investigated the VI role as a mediator in the PCB and CDMP relationship, each VI or PCB role directly to CDMP, and PCB role to IV. Research subjects of first semester (~19 years) students from a private university in Lippo Village-Tangerang were selected through simple random sampling. Data were analyzed with SPSS Amos v.22. Multivariate regression in path analysis showed the theoretical model of each form of PCB did fit with the empirical data. VI has a direct role to CDMP (38.00, 32.00, and 35.00%). Every form of PCB shows a direct role to CDMP (19.00, -13.00, and -15.00%). PCB interference and lack of engagement contribute to VI at -23.00 and -15.00%. VI of each PCB form shows no role as a mediator in the PCB and CDMP relationship on exploration-transition university students.
Highlights
Adolescence is a phase where one prepares for a career in line with the field of study chosen. Super (1980) in the theory of career development stated that a chosen field of study can be seen as a small cycle being part of a big cycle of one’s entire career development life-span
The calculation and display of description of every variable was done for every pattern of path diagram of interrelated variable designed according to each parental career-related behavior (PCB) variable aspect
There are several conclusions that can be drawn from the findings, analysis and interpretation of this research: First, vocational identity can play a direct role in shaping the ability to determine career decisions of university students undergoing exploration-transtition: 38.00%, 32.00%, and 35.00%

Super (1980) in the theory of career development stated that a chosen field of study can be seen as a small cycle (i.e. career decision-making process) being part of a big cycle of one’s entire career development life-span. Adolescents need self-knowledge, work information and a supportive surrounding so that they are able to make career decision. This is a process of determining career choice (career decisionmaking process [CDMP]) in adolescents, which in turn enables them to make career decisions (Khasawneh, Khasawneh, Hailat, & Jawarneh, 2007)
