Kariyer Uyumu ve İyimserliği Ölçeği’ nin geliştirilmesi

Abstract

In this study, the Career Adaptability and Optimism Scale (CAOS) was developed for the purpose of evaluating the career adaptability and optimism of the individuals who making the transition from school to work. The participants in this study consisted of three separate groups, totalling 577 individuals, whose responses who utilized for the for pilot, validity and reliability studies. The participants were senior students studying at state or private universities in 2009-2010 spring and 2010-2011 fall terms (N=281) as well as individuals who were recently graduated from different universities within the preceding 2 years (N= 296) but not working now. A uni-dimensional structure having a quite good adaptability index has been obtained regarding the 18 itemed CAOS during the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of the validity studies. The Cronbach alpha coefficient of CAOS was .93 and test-retest reliability was .85. There is a meaningful relation r=, 60 (p<.01) between the Vocational Outcome Expectations Scale (VOES) of CAOS. These results have been assessed as the indicators that the scale is valid and reliable.

“…Article factor distribution and eigenvalue graphics of CAOS indicate that the scale has a one dimensional structure. Total variance explained in the last version including 18 articles which obtained as a result of analyses was found as 43,79% (Erdoğmuş-Zorver and Korkut Owen, 2014).…”

“…Internal consistency coefficient was found as 0.93 and test-retest reliability was found as 0.85 in reliability studies. From 18 to 90 points can be taken from the scale and the higher the point taken is, the more the level of career adaptability and career optimism are (Erdoğmuş-Zorver and Korkut Owen, 2014).…”

“…CAOS was developed by Erdoğmuş-Zorver and Korkut Owen (2014) in order to measure the career adaptability and career optimism of the individuals who are up to pass working life from university life. While developing the scale with-in the frame of Super's (1980) developmental and life long career development theory, authors benefited from Savickas' (1997) career adaptability concept, Scheier and Carver's (1987) career optimism concept and from Career Future Inventory (CFI) developed by Rottinghaus (2005).…”

“…Savickas' (1997) comprehensive categorization of career adaptability also involves career planning, exploring, and creating career-related decisions. Some studies considered career adaptability as a second-order factor (e.g., Creed et al, 2009) or assessed it in attendance of other constructs (i.e., optimism) in a single dimension (Zorver & Korkut-Owen, 2014), as optimism reflects one crucial component of individuals' career adaptability levels. According to Savickas and Porfeli (2012), career adaptability is a psychosocial concept in CCT because individuals' resources (on career adaptability) are placed at the intersection of the self and surrounding environment.…”

“…Career adaptability can be defined as the predisposition to appropriately cope with developmental tasks, in order to get prepared for and take part in a working environment; and the concept encompasses the capacity to align oneself with unanticipated demands due to the transformations in the job market and in working conditions (Erdoğmuş Zorver, 2011;Savickas, 2005). According to Savickas, (2011) career adaptability is composed of four dimensions: (1) concern about the future, that is, positive future-orientation and concern about the future, and being motivated to plan for the future by taking past, present, and future together into consideration; (2) career control, that is, the sense of at least partial control on the future and persistence (3) career curiosity, as the predisposition to explore the environment for attaining knowledge about one's self and the environment; and (4) confidence in abilities of coping with challenges and overpowering the obstacles they encounter in pursuing their goals.…”
