“…No contexto da pesquisa, sugere-se que seja relacionada com variáveis relevantes para o desenvolvimento de carreira, tais como adaptabilidade de carreira, comportamento exploratório, autoeficácia para decisão de carreira, com o objetivo de verificar os possíveis efeitos da influência parental sobre elas. Pelo que indica a literatura, é provável que desfechos positivos estejam relacionados à percepção de apoio parental, como a autonomia (Gordon & Cui, 2015), a autoeficácia para a tomada de decisão profissional (Fouad, Kim, Ghosh, Chang, & Figueiredo, 2016;Ginevra, Nota, & Ferrari, 2013;Sawitri, Creed, & Zimmer-Gembeck, 2015;Sovet & Metz, 2014), satisfação com a carreira (Gordon & Cui, 2015) e o comportamento exploratório (Bardagi et al, 2012;Sawitri et al, 2015). Tais aspectos podem ser investigados em futuros estudos, os quais são recomendados também para que se possam obter mais evidências de validade do instrumento.…”

RESUMOO envolvimento dos pais durante o processo de decisão profissional dos filhos tem sido considerado uma variável de apoio importante. Este estudo visa apresentar as etapas de construção e as propriedades psicométricas da Escala de Envolvimento Parental na Decisão Vocacional. Esta foi elaborada para avaliar a percepção dos adolescentes sobre as atitudes dos pais diante do processo de escolha profissional. Participaram 390 jovens com idades entre 14 e 20 anos (51,8% do sexo masculino). A partir das análises fatoriais exploratórias, foram extraídos dois fatores (Apoio à tomada de decisão vocacional e Apoio à exploração vocacional), obtendo-se bons valores de consistência interna (α=0,76 a α=0,85). As análises permitiram identificar uma estrutura fatorial adequada e evidências de fidedignidade, indicando que a escala possui potencial para ser utilizada no âmbito da pesquisa e da prática de aconselhamento de carreira. Palavras-chave: desenvolvimento de carreira; relações familiares; escolha ocupacional; desenvolvimento do adolescente; construção de teste. ABSTRACT -Construction and Analysis of Psychometric Properties of the Parental Involvement in Vocational Decision Scale (EEPDV)Parent's involvement during children's professional decision-making process has been considered a significant support variable. This study aims to present the construction steps and psychometric properties of the Parental Involvement in Vocational Decision Scale. The scale was elaborated to evaluate adolescents' perception of their parents' attitudes towards the professional choice process. A total of 390 youth between 14 and 20 years of age (51.8% males) participated. Two factors were extracted from the exploratory factor analysis (support for vocational exploration and support for vocational decision-making), obtaining good internal consistency values (α=0.76 a α=0.85).The analyses permitted identification of an adequate factorial structure and reliability evidence, indicating that the scale has potential to be used in the scope of the research and practice of career counseling.

“…Using a nationally representative sample, Gordon and Cui (2015) found that positive parenting in adolescence, including parental involvement with school-related activities, support, and achievement expectations in grades 7–12, predicted young adults’ (age range= 24 to 32 years) career satisfaction, career autonomy, and career commitment. Importantly, these associations remained significant when family demographic characteristics (i.e., age, gender, ethnicity, parents’ education, and family structure) and young adults’ own educational attainment were controlled.…”

“…The family of origin provides important resources that impact young adults’ achievements in education (Gordon & Cui, 2012; Melby, Conger, Fang, Wickrama, & Conger, 2008) and occupation (Gordon & Cui, 2015). Consistent with social capital theory, among these family resources, parent-youth relationships and parents’ own levels of achievement are two forms of family capital that have been linked to children’s and adolescents’ academic achievement and career development (Bryant, Zvonkovic, & Reynolds, 2006; Coleman, 1988; Parcel, Dufur, & Zito, 2010).…”

Family experiences have been linked to youth’s achievements in childhood and adolescence, but we know less about their long term implications for educational and occupational achievements in young adulthood. Grounded in social capital theory and ecological frameworks, this study tested whether mothers’ and fathers’ education and occupation attainments, as well as the mean level and cross-time consistency of parental warmth during childhood and adolescence, predicted educational and occupational achievements in young adulthood. We also tested interactions between parental achievement and warmth in predicting these young adult outcomes. Data were collected from mothers, fathers, and firstborn and secondborn siblings in 164 families at up to 11 time points. Predictors came from the first nine annual points (youth age M = 10.52 at Time 1) and outcomes from when young adults averaged 26 years old (firstborns at Time 10, secondborns at Time 11). Results from multilevel models revealed that both mothers’ and fathers’ educational attainment and warmth consistency from childhood through adolescence predicted young adults’ educational attainment. Fathers’ occupational prestige predicted sons’, but not daughters’, prestige. An interaction between mothers’ warmth consistency, occupational prestige, and youth gender revealed that, for sons whose mothers’ prestige was low, warmth consistency positively predicted their prestige, but this association was nonsignificant when mothers’ prestige was high. Conversely, for daughters with mothers high in prestige, warmth consistency was a trend level, positive predictor of daughters’ prestige, but was nonsignificant when mothers’ prestige was low. Thus, maternal resources appeared to have a cumulative impact on daughters, but the process for sons was compensatory. Discussion focuses on the role of family resources in the gender gap in young adult achievement.

“…The significance of parenting method and skill as a risk or protective factor on youth outcomes is widely acknowledged in multiple fields of inquiry including school achievement (Spera 2005), mental health (Horwitz et al 2010;Zimmer-Gembeck et al 2013), delinquency (Fagan et al 2011) and medical health (Armstrong et al 2011). As Am J Community Psychol (2015) 56:408-421 409 youth age towards adolescence, developmental shifts towards autonomy for the youth requires shifts in parenting as well (Brauer and De Coster 2015); however, in contrast to a widespread belief that parenting matters less during this time, positive parenting continues to affect youth wellbeing through young adulthood in career choice and success (Gordon and Cui 2015), and substance use (Aquilino and Supple 2001;Coombs and Landsverk 1988). The influence of parenting on youth well-being, along with the legal responsibility parents and other guardians hold for youth development, has encouraged other child-serving systems to develop innovative strategies for more reciprocal collaboration.…”

Family involvement is recognized as a critical element of service planning for children's mental health, welfare and education. For the juvenile justice system, however, parents' roles in this system are complex due to youths' legal rights, public safety, a process which can legally position parents as plaintiffs, and a historical legacy of blaming parents for youth indiscretions. Three recent national surveys of juvenile justice-involved parents reveal that the current paradigm elicits feelings of stress, shame and distrust among parents and is likely leading to worse outcomes for youth, families and communities. While research on the impact of family involvement in the justice system is starting to emerge, the field currently has no organizing framework to guide a research agenda, interpret outcomes or translate findings for practitioners. We propose a research framework for family involvement that is informed by a comprehensive review and content analysis of current, published arguments for family involvement in juvenile justice along with a synthesis of family involvement efforts in other child-serving systems. In this model, family involvement is presented as an ascending, ordinal concept beginning with (1) exclusion, and moving toward climates characterized by (2) information-giving, (3) information-eliciting and (4) full, decision-making partnerships. Specific examples of how courts and facilities might align with these levels are described. Further, the model makes predictions for how involvement will impact outcomes at multiple levels with applications for other child-serving systems.
