The model validation between career adaptability and family environment variables based on human ecosystem model: focused on gender differences in university students
Abstract
The current sutdy was conducted to observe the development path of university students' career adaptability in family environment. Based on the human ecosystem model, various family environment variables were structuralized, its validity confirmed through model validation, then differences in path coefficient and relation structure by gender difference were observed.399 university students in a 4-year program within the metropolitan area (172 males, 227 females) answered questions on personal growth initiative, career future, parental support on autonomy, functional family communication, family cohesiveness, family adaptability, inter-parental conflict, socioeconomic status. All data were analyzed with SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 18.0. The result of the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) confirmed a full mediation model based on a significant path coefficient and validity; high macrosystem level results higher mesosystem level; higher mesosystem level results higher microsystem level; and higher microsystem level results higher career adaptability level. Furthermore, model validation was conducted by separating the data by gender to observe any gender differences. The results showed that in female students, the influence of exosystem was not significant, whereas it was with male students. The current study interpreted the results, and provided the purpose of the current study, its limitations, and suggestions for future studies.
