ABSTRACT

This study aims to verify the mediating effect of positive illusions in the relationship between Christian university students' intrinsic religious orientation and their career preparation behavior. 172 Christian university students were sampled, and their intrinsic religious orientation, their positive illusion, and their career preparation behavior were measured. Use SPSS WIN 18.0 and AMOS 18.0. As a result, Christian university students' intrinsic religious orientation and their positive illusions, and their positive illusions and their career preparation behavior had a positive correlation, but their intrinsic religious orientation and their career preparation behavior had no correlation. Second, the positive illusion mediating structural model in the relationship between Christian university students' intrinsic religious orientation and their career preparation behavior was fit for the data, and all paths except the path from their intrinsic religious orientation to their career preparation behavior were statistically significant. Third, the positive illusion's mediating effect in the relationship between the intrinsic religious orientation and the career preparation behavior was found to be a complete mediator. This suggests that Christian university students' career behavior promoted their career preparation behavior through their positive illusions rather than directly influenced their intrinsic religious orientation; thus, the role that Christian university students' positive illusions played in promoting their career preparation behavior, and its implications in counseling were discussed. Lastly, this research's significance and limitations, and follow-up research direction were discussed.
