Calling and Negative Career-Related Advice Receptivity of High School Musicians: Confirmation Bias as a Mediator and BAS and Subjective Grade as Moderators

Abstract

This study explores the relation between calling and career decision making process. This study aims toexamine whether confirmation bias mediates the relationship between calling and career-related advicereceptivity and whether BAS and subjective grade moderate the relationship between calling andconfirmation bias. In this study, data were gathered from 218 amateur high school musicians in Busan,Korea. Our results indicated that (a) calling was positively correlated to, and also a significant predictor ofconfirmation bias and, (b) calling lowered career-related negative advice receptivity, and confirmation biaspartially mediated this relationship (c) both BAS and subjective grade moderated the relation betweencalling and confirmation bias. The authors discuss the findings in terms of the implications andlimitations.
