ABSTRACT

Background: Many adolescents work part-time jobs for financial motives such as pocket money or living expenses, but other adolescents work part-time jobs for non-monetary motives such as interests and social experiences. Although the effect of adolescents' part-time job motivation on career development may be different, there are few empirical studies on this. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between motivation for part-time job, self-efficacy in career decision-making, and career maturity in adolescents. Methodology: The subjects of this study were 11th graders(N = 10,558) who participated in the first year of KEEPⅡ(Korean Education & Employment Panel Ⅱ)(2016) conducted by the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training, and the data of 9,666 students, excluding cases with missing values, were included in the analysis. To explore the relationship between variables, multiple regression analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS software (Version 26). Findings: There was no significant relationship between adolescents' part-time job experience, career decision-making self-efficacy, and career maturity. However, there was a significant relationship between adolescents' part-time job motivation, career decision-making self-efficacy, and career maturity. In other words, adolescents with non-monetary part-time job motives had higher career decision-making self-efficacy and career maturity than those with monetary motives. Conclusions: The motivation for part-time job of adolescents affects their career development. Effective intervention by youth leaders is important when adolescents choose and perform part-time jobs.
