Abstract | This article reports on the measurement properties of the Vietnamese versions of the Career Education and Development Scale-Senior and the Career Education and Development Scale-Tertiary. The International Labour Organization Vietnam facilitated collection of data from students in high schools (N = 1463) and universities (N = 645) who completed these new measures along with comparator measures of self-efficacy and career related beliefs, and expectations. Confirmatory factor analyses revealed an eight-factor model equivalent for high school and university students. Correlations with comparator measures provide evidence of concurrent validity. These new measures of career preparedness support Vietnam’s national efforts to advance career development, research, and practice. Future research recommendations focus on testing the measures’ properties across different sociocultural factors and gender. |
