Abstract | In this chapter, we begin with an overview of concepts that relates to the theoretical notion career adaptability (Savickas, 2005). Next we raise concerns about conflation of terminology and concepts. We subsequently present a semantic and pragmatic analysis of career adaptability in order to demonstrate its similarities and differences to social cognitive constructs and suggest how its conceptual articulation in the scientific literature may progress. We conclude the chapter by presenting some implications for research and practice, particularly with regards to measurement of constructs. |
