Abstract/Summary
This study determines the effect of Parental attachment and family dysfunction on the career search self-efficacy of the undergraduates. The hypotheses are: first, that the level of family dysfunction significantly predicts career search self-efficacy among college undergraduates. Second, that parental attachment significantly predicts career search self-efficacy of undergraduates, third, attachment to mother accounts for significant prediction in their career search self-efficacy. Fourth, for the late adolescents attachment to father accounts for significant prediction of their career search self-efficacy. Fifth, there is significant difference in the variance of career search self-efficacy and the combination of family dysfunction and attachment to mother between male and female late adolescents. Lastly, family dysfunction and parental attachment variables predict career search self-efficacy beliefs more for women than men.The participants were 180 (75 Male, 105 female) randomly selected third and fourth year college students of De La Salle University. To assess the levels of their family dysfunction, parental attachment and career search self-efficacy, Family Structure Survey, Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment Scale and Career Search Self-Efficacy Scale were administered respectively. The data were analyzed applying simultaneous regression analysis for the total sample and for males and females separately.
