Study for Local Journalists Career PlanningChao, Wan-ju 21 July 2008 (has links)
1987, Taiwan government announced the lifting of martial law. After that, it provides the open space for media industry with free market mechanism. Therefore, it was a popular job working in medium for fresh man. "Management magazine" finishing 1992-2001 ideal corporate ranks, TVBS found on the top 10 three times, but they found that journalists intended to have a career transition was up to 90% in the 2006 survey by "1111 Manpower Bank".
These studies were aimed at local journalist career planning process and business model. It has tried to depict a background of journalist in other workplace on the advantages and disadvantages with purposive sampling from depth interviews with ten journalists about their career transition.
Ten interviewees indicated that the reason for them to be journalists is due to personal interests. However, in terms of the motive for career transition, "interests" is considered less important and "life stability", "family" and "dissatisfaction with wider social contexts" are instead highlighted. Six of the above interviewees took advantages of "interpersonal network" to seek for new jobs. Three factors make their working performance distinguished from other new colleagues, namely, "interpersonal network", "previous working experiences as journalists", "a sense of responsibility towards the society as a whole and insistence on fulfilling tasks". However, three of the interviewees had returned to the original occupation and one is actively seeking for such a chance. Reasons for that are that working as non-journalists was not as good as they had expected or they simply started again another circle of career transition.
In addition, this study also suggests that journalists may be less objective and over-optimistic when evaluating the adequacy of personal capacity for a career transition. This also happens when they need to infer or express viewpoints regarding the world. All above is due to the fact that being a journalist is constantly involved with all sorts of people, occurrences and circumstances. This statement can be supported by Krumboltz's third determinant of career development, which is the possession of "task approach skills". Furthermore, the review of previous studies with respect to summaries of news in southern Taiwan as well as reasons why journalists resign may be of use for future research.

The relationship between locus of control and career advancementWoolley, Gavin Roland 02 June 2014 (has links)
M.Com. (Industrial Psychology) / The objective which career of this study advancement is was to investigate the extent to contingent on the personality construct locus of control. In order to achieve this, empirical research was conducted in a South African organisation. A survey questionnaire measuring career advancement and locus of control was completed by 152 subjects. The hypothesis which was formulated was that people with higher rates of career advancement would be more internal and those with lower rates would be more external. This hypothesis was tested via a one-way analysis of variance, and was consequently supported. Secondary findings relating to contingency analyses of the effects of biographical variables on career advancement revealed that career advancement was also contingent on education. Whilst the results of this research indicate that personality issues play a role in career advancement, it is not possible to infer conclusively that internals advance at faster rates than externals, as internality may arise as a consequence of career success. of careers in findings research. Tentative explanations are provided for the research, and suggestions are made for further alleviate the short-coming of the current enhance the understanding of the nature organisations.

Career indecision amongst undergraduate university students at an academic institution in the Western CapeGoliath, Dané January 2012 (has links)
Magister Commercii - MCom / One of the most important decisions adolescents are confronted with in the transitioning period from high school to tertiary institutions, is making career decisions. Young adults and adolescents may experience high levels of stress when they are expected to make decisions pertaining to a desired career. The stressful period may be too overwhelming for them.As a result it may have adverse implications on the quality of their career choice. The applicability of career indecision amongst undergraduate university students is considered an inability to choose a university major or occupation (Brogan & Hiebert, 2006).According to Creed, Patton and Prideaux (2006), career indecision is linked to issues related to career development and problems in making career related decisions, society’s expectations and perceptions, as well as the role of the family which may have an impact on the student’s ability to make career choices. In a study conducted by Creed and Patton (2003) it was revealed that age, gender and career indecision were predictors of career maturity knowledge. Joordan, Smithard and Burger (2009) postulate that career indecision influences career related thoughts and career decisions and plays an important role in the way individuals formulate career goals. Gordon and Meyer (2002) are of the view that it is not atypical for individuals to experience a certain level of developmental career indecision, this may be resultant to not having adequate experience and sufficient knowledge pertaining to the world of work. Developmental career indecision amongst students is viewed as a wholesome state which may ultimately prompt the student to explore careers and set goals (Feldt,2010).Brown, Brooks and Associates (1996), delineate that a career choice is an act which replicate an individual’s motivation. This action compels the individual to work toward their goals and to achieve it. As students venture on attaining their goal (career choice) they are confronted with many challenges, some of which include the transition from secondary school to tertiary level and the adaptation to an academic environment.This emphasizes the importance of career guidance, and that it should not be neglected. Stead and Watson (1999) conducted a study on first year university students in the Western Cape which revealed that students from disadvantaged schools were unable to choose study directions at tertiary level due to negligence of not providing career guidance at school level.Resultant to this, students were not afforded the opportunity to make informed decisions pertaining to career choices. Brown et al. (1996) presume the more informed an individual is about career choices and their
abilities, the more likely they are to make career choices as they are more
prepared to do so.The current study aimed to examine career indecision experienced by undergraduate university students at an academic institution in the Western Cape. The study examined the differences in career indecision based on gender and age, it also examined the relationship between a lack of information and career indecision and lastly access to a career counsellor and career indecision. A biographical questionnaire and the Career Decision Making Difficulties Questionnaire (CDDQ) were administered to undergraduate university students. The sample (n = 224) consisted of first, second and third year male and female undergraduate commerce students. The results indicated that there are significant
differences in career decision making based on gender and age. In addition, the results revealed that there is a moderate relationship between lack of information and career indecision and findings also indicated a significant relationship between access to a career counsellor and career indecision.The results of the current study should however, be interpreted with caution as a convenience sampling strategy was utilized thus limiting generalizabilty to the broader population of students. Furthermore limitations are put forth and the study concludes with recommendations for further research and for academic institutions for consideration.

The levels of career maturity amongst final year undergraduate students, within a department, at a higher education institution, in the Western CapeBarendse, Tasneem January 2015 (has links)
Magister Commercii (Industrial Psychology) - MCom(IPS) / Tertiary education is becoming increasingly costly for many students. According to Pieterse (2005), young people can barely afford to make mistakes in their career decisions, as this could cost them too much in time and money. According to Coertse and Schepers (2004), one of the most important decisions adolescents will ever face is choosing what career to pursue. Coertse and Schepers (2004) propose that an adolescent’s career has significant consequences on their identity, values and aspirations. The most efficient way to develop young persons’ abilities, and assist them in realising their true potential, is through the educational and vocational training offered in schools (Lens, Herrera & Lacante, 2004). Many students do not receive proper career guidance at secondary schooling and they find themselves in their final year graduating, and unsure in terms of the career they are going to pursue. Hence, there exists a great need in the South African context for career guidance and for additional research in the levels of career maturity amongst final year undergraduate students. Career maturity has important implications for career development and decision-making practices (Schreuder & Coetzee, 2014). The term career maturity represents a readiness to engage in and the ability to master certain career developmental tasks appropriate to the age and level of an individual (Langley, Du Toit & Herbst, 1996). In previously disadvantaged communities in South Africa, career and educational planning was characterised by under- development, marginalisation, and under-resourcing (Pieterse, 2005). This could negatively impact students’ motivation towards, and perspectives of, their future careers. The present study aimed to assess the career maturity levels among final year students at a tertiary institution. Specifically, how students’ age, gender, stated certainty of career and type of secondary school influenced their career maturity levels. The sample group (N=149) consisted of final year undergraduate students, who were conveniently drawn to voluntarily partake in the research. Participants completed a biographical questionnaire as well as the Career Development Questionnaire (CDQ). Anonymity was ensured and the students were informed that all the information would be treated with strict confidentiality and used only for the stated research purposes. Statistical analyses involved descriptive and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation, T-test and Analysis of variance). The results indicated no significant relationship between the age, stated certainty of career, type of secondary school students attended and their career maturity. However, a significant relationship was found between gender and career maturity.

The impact of career guidance (CG) for career choice (CC) in the secondary schools of Sepitsi Circuit in lLebowakgomo District, Limpopo ProvinceNong, Tlou William January 2016 (has links)
Thesis (M. Dev.) -- University of Limpopo, 2016 / The aim of this study is to assess the impact of career guidance for career choice in
the secondary schools of Sepitsi Circuit in Lebowakgomo District, Limpopo Province.
The total number of secondary schools in the Circuit is twelve (12), with 20 Life
Orientation Educators (LOEs) and 275 Grade 12 Learners (GR12Ls). All schools are
public schools having the same features of rural and previously disadvantaged
communities’ context. The study was conducted during examination time and therefore
co-operation both in the part of learners and educators was not at the maximum as
expected. The research is evaluative in nature as the researcher sought to assess the
effectiveness of Career Choice (CC) as influenced by the implementation of Career
Guidance (CG). The primary data were collected by means of two categories of
questionnaires for mostly close-ended questions and open-ended questions for Grade
12 Learner (GR12L) respondents and Life Orientation Educator (LOE) participants
respectively. The findings show that CG is not given the necessary attention at
secondary schools as GR12Ls and LOEs struggle to understand obvious CG concepts.
This research project focuses on the value of such a study both to explain how Career
Guidance need to be taken as the mother of all subjects in schools as it is the nucleus
in the realization of the main aim of every country’s education system, participating fully
in the world of work for socio-economic growth. The study’s recommendations
concluded that Career Guidance, which is part of Life Orientation (LO), should be given
the status of a full subject in our schools.
