Abstract
In today’s technology world, the number and use of online tools has almost reached its peak. Depending on the developments in technology, individuals’ approaches and behaviors regarding their careers have also begun to change. However, validated measures that measure individuals' online proactive career behavior appear to be lacking today. The current study aims to develop and validate the scale to measure online proactive career behaviors. The participants of the study consist of 942 university students in Türkiye (aged between 19 to 42). The findings showed that the developed scale met the validity and reliability criteria. In addition, it seemed that the online proactive career behaviors obtained within this current study may represent the career behaviors in the Career Construction Model of Adaptation as proactive career behaviors.
