This book was released on 2018 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While college and career readiness benchmarks were created to provide evidence that a student is academically ready to succeed in a post-secondary educational setting, many high school graduates do not reach these academic benchmarks, and of students who go on to college, many do not complete their bachelor’s degree. Furthermore, current college and career readiness markers neglect to consider non-academic factors despite research suggesting that psychosocial factors strongly influence readiness beyond academic performance. The literature supports the premise that other powerful forces, namely social-cognitive factors also shape learning and performance, which in turn shapes academic and career outcomes. Self-efficacy emerged as an important social-cognitive factor which can influence academic readiness and by extension, college and career readiness as it affects the ability to adapt and meet varying academic demands and is a key construct in career identity development and interest development. To address this gap, this quantitative study used a modified model of Social Cognitive Career Theory to examine the influence of the learning environment on the academic self-efficacy beliefs, academic outcome expectations, and academic interest of undergraduate college students. The primary research focus was to study the relationship of the students’ perceptions about the level of teacher and institutional support to their beliefs about their ability to complete academic tasks, expected outcomes, and academic interests or persistence. Data was collected from 158 undergraduate college students to answer the research questions. The results of the study found that academic interest was statistically significant in mean between upper and underclassman undergraduate college students. Teacher support explained a significant amount of variance in academic self-efficacy and academic outcome expectations. Additionally, academic self-efficacy and academic outcome expectations were correlated. Institutional support explained a significant amount of variance in academic outcome expectations, and academic outcome expectations explained a significant amount of variance in academic interest. Finally, no relationship was observed between institutional support to academic self-efficacy nor between academic self-efficacy and academic interest. Implications, limitations, and further research recommendations are discussed for school counselors, teachers, administrators, and counselor educators as they relate to addressing the college and career readiness needs of the student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More women are entering the workforce (Betz, 2005), and these women have an interest in managing multiple life roles (Hoffnung, 2004). Multiple roles can be beneficial (Barnett & Hyde, 2001) or problematic (Adelmann, 1994) for one's overall well-being, and can be determined by one's subjective perception of ability to manage roles. This study examined multiple role management through the lens of social cognitive career theory (Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994) within a female sample. Maternal role modeling and feminist identification were proposed to function as predictors of self-efficacy expectations and outcome expectations for multiple role management. Within the social cognitive career theory model, these predictors were operationalized as learning experiences of young women hypothesized to influence confidence to manage life roles of worker, parent, and partner. These three roles were selected for the present study based on their common assessment in prior literature (Hoffnung, 2004; Kerpelman & Schvaneveldt, 1999; Riggio & Desrochers, 2006; Tingey, Kiger, & Riley, 1996) and research that indicated these three roles as ideal life roles among young women (Bridges, 1987). Data were collected from 422 undergraduate women at a Midwestern University. Participants completed a self-efficacy for multiple role management measure modeled from the SEERM (Lefcourt, 1995), the Influence of Others on Academic and Career Decisions Scale (Nauta & Kokaly, 2001), a maternal role modeling measure developed based on literature (Weer et al., 2006), the Feminist Identity Composite (Fisher et al., 2000), the Feminist Beliefs and Behavior measure (Zucker, 2004), a multiple roles outcome expectations measure developed based on literature (Fouad & Guillen, 2006; Lent & Brown, 2006), a checklist to assess participants' identified primary role models, and an open-ended item for participants to describe concluding comments. Structural equation model analyses demonstrated inadequate fit between the model and data. Findings demonstrated significant paths extending from feminist identity to self-efficacy expectations, feminist identity to outcome expectations, and self-efficacy expectations to outcome expectations. Exploratory analyses involving substitution of maternal role modeling items with the IOACDS revealed maternal role modeling significantly predicted self-efficacy expectations. Findings were explained based on the conceptualization of variables and measurement concerns.
