“…Savickas (1990) found that a course for 10th graders that adhered to the Crites Career Decision-Making Course Model reduced the participants career decision-making difficulties and increased their foresight in terms of personal direction. The researchers in two studies (Kush & Cochran, 1993;Palmer & Cochran, 1988) found that a program for parents that provides skills for them to assist their adolescent children did indeed foster the childrens career development.…”

In this review, the authors summarize school counseling outcome research published between 1988 and 1995. Gysbers and Henderson's (1994) comprehensive developmental guidance model served as the organizing model through which the status of empirical literature regarding school counseling is examined. Results indicated that research focused more on remediation activities as compared to preventive interventions. This review found tentative suppor t for career planning, group counseling, social skill training activities, and peer counseling. Practical implications and future research direction are drawn from these conclusions.

“…Most recently, vocational psychologists have emphasized the importance of agency and action in career development (Chen, 2006;Cochran & Laub, 1994;Fouad & Bynner, 2008;Kush & Cochran, 1993;McIlveen, 2009;Young & Valach, 2004). Most well known in this regard is social cognitive career theory, which posits that self-efficacy beliefs are central to agency (Lent, 2005;Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994;Lent & Fouad, 2011).…”

Counseling for work and relationship is a social constructionist perspective, informed by feminist and social justice values, and responsive to radical changes in contemporary lives, that fosters a shift in vocational psychology from helping people develop careers to helping people construct lives through work and relationship. The first and major proposition of this perspective is a new discourse for describing the construction of lives that specifies four major social contexts through which people construct lives. These social contexts are market work, personal care work, personal relationships, and market work relationships. Additional propositions of the counseling for work and relationship perspective are the centrality of narrative theory for understanding how lives are constructed and agentic action as a critical process in constructing lives. Implications for research, intervention, and training are considered.

“…As an example of how studies using experimental designs may be beneficial to career counselling, can be referred to a study by Kush and Cochran (1993). In this study, the researchers hypothesized that students who completed a career-planning program with their parents would have a stronger sense of agency regarding a career.…”
