The Differences Between Psychological Types Based on Locus of Control and Tolerance of Uncertainty in the Perceived Career Barriers
Abstract
This study investigated psychological types based on the locus of control and the tolerance of uncertainty that might lead to the individual differences in the perceived career barriers of the Korean adolescents. A total of 648 male and female adolescents in middle and high schools completed a questionnaire. The data was analyzed using cluster analysis and MANOVA. Cluster analysis with the internal locus of control, the external locus of control, and the tolerance of uncertainty yielded four types: Internal control group with security, external control group with insecurity, high engagement group with insecurity, and low engagement group with insecurity. Security and insecurity represented the high and low levels of the tolerance of uncertainty. Internal control indicated a high level of internal locus of control and a low level of external locus of control. External control was labeled for the condition with a high level of external locus of control and a low level of internal locus of control. High engagement reflected high levels of both internal and external loci of control, and low engagement was indicated by low levels of both internal and external loci of control. MANOVA was conducted to examine the differences between four groups in the perceived career barriers. The result showed that internal control group with security perceived the lowest level of career barriers across all types of career barriers. On the other hand, both high engagement group with insecurity and low engagement group with insecurity reported the greatest level of career barriers. These findings indicate that the tolerance of uncertainty, along with the locus of control, may serve as an important factor for perceived career barriers.
