Abstract/Summary:
The purpose of this study was to enhance the utility of self-regulatory processes that allow undergraduates to gain a greater sense of their identity and in turn impact their career exploration behaviors. The results indicated that, decision making and causality orientations were significant predictors of both environmental and self-exploration of career opportunities.; In addition, significant differences between gender, age, grade level, grade point average, academic probation, and with decision making, causality orientations, career exploration behaviors, and career certainty were found. The study concludes with discussions on the results, limitations, and implications of the research.
