Adaptability is described as the apt mental, behavioural, and/or emotional modifications individuals make to deal with change, challenges, and uncertainty. The present paper builds on the recently developed measurement work of the adaptability construct, investigates the relationship between adaptability and meaning and purpose (a well-being factor) and the role of adaptability in predicting workplace subjective well-being (work engagement, job satisfaction, and handling work stress) relevant to the young workforce. The adaptability study concluded that implicit theories and personality significantly projected adaptability. Further, adaptability is shown as the predictor of well-being (including meaning and purpose) after accounting for the effects of presage factors. These results presume implications for executives and practitioners pursuing to identify and address young workers’ approaches to their challenging and adverse workplace demands, and how meaning and purpose may assist these workers in better adjustment and engagement in their workplace.

La recension des écrits scientifiques démontre que les hommes abusés sexuellement à l’enfance et à l’adolescence (HASE) doivent composer avec des impacts négatifs qui se répercutent tout au long de leur vie adulte. Ces impacts peuvent être multiples (p. ex., détresse psychologique sévère, estime de soi pauvre, difficultés relationnelles) et ne sont pas sans conséquence sur le rapport au travail. Du moins, c’est ce que cette recherche mixte, conduite auprès de 28 HASE, semble indiquer. En effet, les participants vivent un rapport au travail qui est perturbé et perturbateur. Le rapport au travail est perturbé, car il est un exutoire. C’est-à-dire une manière de taire leurs souffrances psychologiques causées par les abus sexuels. Ce rapport est aussi perturbateur, car il ne contribue pas à leur réalisation personnelle. Les données quantitatives corroborent les données produites par l’analyse qualitative. Par exemple, seulement 40% occupent un emploi et près du tiers des répondants (28,6 %) déclare recevoir des prestations d’aide sociale (PAS), au moment de la collecte des données. Ces pourcentages sont relativement élevés, comparativement à la population générale masculine (PGM), 5,6% de la PGM reçoivent des PAS et 74% sont des salariés.

Objective: This study was undertaken to explore what motivates women to pursue surgical careers. Design: Qualitative methods were employed in this interview-based study. Interviews were recorded, manually anonymized and transcribed, and thematized using NVivo software. Setting: This study was conducted at Memorial University of Newfoundland in Canada. Participants: Recruitment for this study via email requested volunteers who identified as women and were medical students considering a career in surgery. Recruitment continued until data was saturated. A total of 8 participants volunteered and were included. Results: This study revealed five themes associated with women's motivation to pursue surgical careers; mentorship, inherent aspirations, lived experience, and proof of capability, preconceived ideals. The commonest theme was mentorship. The women who participated in this study employed unconventional methods when seeking mentorship, some of which are unique to this work. Conclusions: The most prevalent factors influencing women's motivation to pursue surgical careers are mentorship, inherent aspirations, participants' lived experience, a desire to prove their capability, and their preconceived ideals about surgery. All factors were deeply influential over one another. A greater understanding of these factors may help future researchers and educators create a more fulfilling career for women in surgery.

This study examines the dynamics of personality traits that interfere with occupational decisions among young adults, especially during a pandemic. Three multiple regression analyses were conducted to predict career decision self-efficacy (CDSE), e.g., planning and indecision from the Big 5 personality measures. We hypothesized that EI and personality affect employment conflicts (Study 1), and that CDSE mediates EI and planning difficulty (Study 2). Conscientiousness and openness significantly predicted CDSE, F(5, 128) = 15.64, p < .001, R2 = .38, while neuroticism was statistically significant in predicting CSPS, F(5, 128) = 3.94, p < .01, R2 = .13. Neuroticism was significant for personality variables while a negative correlation was found between EI and career indecision (r = -0.25, at p < .01). Results demonstrate that the positive effect of CDSE mediated EI’s link to career indecision, which reveals that conscientiousness also predicted participants’ occupational indecision (β = -0.17, p < .05).
本研究考察了影响年轻人职业决策的人格特征的动态,特别是在大流行期间。采用多元回归分析对职业决策自我效能(CDSE)进行了预测,即从大五人格测量中预测计划和优柔寡断。我们假设EI和人格影响就业冲突(研究1),CDSE在EI和计划困难之间起中介作用(研究2)。尽责性和开放性对CDSE有显著预测作用,F(5,128) = 15.64, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.38;神经质性对CSPS有显著预测作用,F(5,128) = 3.94, p < 0.01, R2 = 0.13。神经质与职业优柔寡断呈显著负相关(r = -0.25, p < 0.01)。结果表明,CDSE在EI与职业优柔寡断的关系中具有正向作用,表明责任心对职业优柔寡断也有预测作用(β = -0.17, p < 0.05)。

L’anxiété lors de l’adolescence est une problématique de santé mentale présente dans les sociétés occidentales, notamment au Québec, qui peut avoir des effets délétères sur les jeunes, et leur choix de carrière. Cet article porte sur la prévention de l’anxiété face au choix de carrière, plus précisément sur les programmes d’intervention groupale se penchant sur cette problématique. Une analyse critique de la littérature est menée à partir de la psychologie culturelle-historique de Vygotski, afin de renouveler le regard théorique porté sur ce type d’interventions, majoritairement cognitivo-comportementales. Trois axes sont mobilisés pour analyser les programmes d’intervention groupale pour la prévention de l’anxiété auprès des adolescentes et adolescents recensés : la conception des émotions sous-jacente aux programmes, l’apport du groupe dans la dynamique collective d’apprentissage et les instruments transmis afin de favoriser la capacité des personnes participantes à maîtriser leurs émotions –notamment l’anxiété. Des résultats sont présentés, puis discutés, sur la base de ces trois axes. Bien que reconnaissant l’intérêt des recherches analysées, les résultats permettent d’identifier plusieurs lacunes des programmes recensés notamment dans la conceptualisation de la transmission des instruments de systématisation de l’expérience d’anxiété, qui sont discutées par rapport à leurs implications sur le choix de carrière lors de l’adolescence.

This paper considers the significance of the theoretical underpinnings behind the counselling practices employed by career counsellors within the current pandemic we are living within today. Faced with new ways of interacting with and building relationships with our clients, counsellors must consider how they build therapeutic resonance and whether or not distance counselling can achieve these same goals. Written from the perspective of a graduate student attempting to commit to a dissertation focus by exploring a variety of theories within the field of career development, this paper ultimately asks the question – is it possible to build a therapeutic relationship with a client when physical proximity is not possible?
