414 undergraduate students were included in this study. They completed 4 questionnaire to measure career decision-making autonomy, confidence level of their career decision, perceived career barrier and employment preparation behaviors. To examine the influence of career decision-making autonomy on career decision-making and employment preparation behavior, various statistical analysis was executed.
Research finding are as following. First, the higher academic grade rise, the higher career decision confidence level and employment preparation behavior increase on ANOVA. Second, the higher career decision-making autonomy perceived, the higher they were assured of their career decision and the higher they executed the prepare employment preparation behaviors at correlation analysis. Freshmen and sophomore have positive correlation career decision-making autonomy and preliminary employment preparation behavior, on the other side junior and senior have positive correlation career decision-making autonomy and preliminary employment preparation behavior, real employment preparation behavior. Third, not only career decision-making autonomy influenced preliminary employment preparation behaviors or real employment preparation behaviors directly, not also influenced indirectly at path analysis through path analysis. Results indicated perceived career decision-making autonomy changes career decision-making, in turn career decision-making changes employment preparation behaviors.
Implications and limitations of this study and suggestions for futures were discussed.
