| Abstract: | A short 33-item form of the Career Development Inventory was validated on a sample of 310 Iranian high school students. Factor
analysis indicated that attitude and cognitive subscale items loaded on their respective factors, and that internal reliability
coefficients at all levels were satisfactory to good. Support for validity was demonstrated by associations in the expected
direction for career decidedness and career decision-making self-efficacy. This short form of the inventory shows promise
as a measure of career maturity with students from a non-Western country. |
