Types of career representations and their relationship with self-confidence among future educators

Abstract

The object of this study is the career representations of young men and women studying to become educators, while the subject is the relationship between types of career representations and components of self-confidence among future educators. The aim of the research is to identify the impact of self-confidence and its components on the development of types of career representations among future educators. The results of the work include data on the development of specific types of career representations and components of a self-confident personality, as well as the connections between them among young men and women who are future educators. These findings can serve as a basis for organizing further research on the development of career representations and self-confidence, as well as practical work on the diagnosis and development of career representations and self-confidence among young men and women. The study employed a specially developed diagnostic method for career representation types; a set of methods for diagnosing components of a self-confident personality; and statistical methods for processing and analyzing empirical data. The novelty of the research lies in identifying age-related features in the development of career representation types and establishing the influence of self-confidence and its psychological components on the development of various types of career representations among young men and women. The results obtained from the work lead to the following conclusions: 1) among young men and women, future educators, the most developed career representation types are the attractive, socially oriented, affiliative, and authoritarian types, while the pragmatic and gloristic types are the least developed; 2) all types of career representations in them require further development to varying degrees; 3) among future educators, self-assessment of abilities plays the largest role in the development of career representations, followed by optimism, self-efficacy, hope, resilience, autonomous causal orientation, risk propensity, and tolerance for uncertainty in decreasing order of importance.
