Title: Use of Computer Assisted Career Guidance with Prior Cognitive Restructuring Technical Report Number 3.
Creator: Shahnasarian, Michael, Peterson, Gary W.
Abstract/Description: Cognitive structuring was implemented by showing 30 subjects a 10-minute videotape that presented Holland's (1985) model of the world of work before they used an interactive computer assisted guidance system (DISCOVER). The effect of prior structuring was assessed in terms of a subject's representation of the world of work, occupational certainty and vocational identity.

Show moreCognitive structuring was implemented by showing 30 subjects a 10-minute videotape that presented Holland's (1985) model of the world of work before they used an interactive computer assisted guidance system (DISCOVER). The effect of prior structuring was assessed in terms of a subject's representation of the world of work, occupational certainty and vocational identity. The subjects were volunteer clients who came to a university career resource center for vocational counseling. Two treatment groups and a control group were used: pretest, cognitive structuring, and DISCOVER; pretest and DISCOVER; and DISCOVER only. The results indicated that subjects who assimilated the Holland model prior to using DISCOVER were more homogeneous in sorting 36 randomly selected occupations into related clusters, and were more homogeneous in the number of occupational alternatives they listed on a posttest. Subjects who used DISCOVER without cognitive structuring became significantly more assured of their vocational identity (i.e., goals, interests, personality), while the cognitive structuring group did not become so assured. Occupational certainty was unaffected by any treatment. The cognitive structuring experience prior to subject's use of DISCOVER encouraged them to add occupations to consider when they had a few alternatives and to eliminate occupations to consider when they had many.

Show moreThis report documents an effort by the Association of Computer-Based Systems for Career Information to facilitate increased awareness and utilization of career information delivery systems (CIDS) by federal, state, and local governmental agencies who plan and deliver career services for adults and adolescents in transition. By more clearly understanding how CIDS specifically contribute to recent federal initiatives related to one-stop career centers, military downsizing, and school to work transitions, CIDS operators can be more proactive in ensuring that CIDS are used to the fullest extent possible in meeting the transition needs of adults and adolescents in the United States. The planning activity outlined in this report incorporates the collective experience and judgement of professionals experienced with CIDS design and use. Individuals invited to participate in the planning activity included all attendees of the Association of Computer-Based Systems for Career Information 16th annual conference held December 1-3, 1993, in Nashville, Tennessee. Using a nominal group technique, facilitators assisted two groups of randomly assigned conference participants in exploring how CIDS could contribute to one-stop career centers, military downsizing, and school-to-work transitions. Each group developed lists of potential CIDS contributions in priority order that are presented in a series of tables. Comments from conference participants regarding trends across the priorities identified by each group and potential next steps in planning are also included. The report concludes with a recommendation for a content analysis of potential CIDS contributions.

Exploring the rationale behind need-based design addresses questions such as “Why is this approach important for Web-site design?” Understanding the reasoning behind the approach allows an organization’s members to decide whether or not to employ a need-based approach. If an organization decides to take a need-based approach, the next step is to ask, “How can the organization’s members implement this approach?” This paper addresses this “how” question.

We obtained anonymous student course ratings from 219 students, or 75% of students enrolled in the class during the 1999-2000 school year. We utilized archival data from one section of the course in 1995, and normative university course ratings from 1995 as a basis for comparing our course ratings in 1999-2000. Ratings were taken from the results of the Student Instructional Rating System (SIRS) that has been used since 1971, as well as demographic information provided by students. Student ratings of the career course were compared for the 19992000 course sections, the 1995 section, and the 1995 normative group. Differences in student ratings across the eleven sections of the course were compared across nine selected SIRS items. Student perceptions of the quality of the career course have been quite consistent over time. Students perceive the career course to be characterized by greater course demands, greater student-instructor involvement, greater course organization, and lower student interest than other courses at the university. Student perceptions of career courses appear to be more positive when the class meets more than one time per week, allowing students the opportunity to integrate and apply what they are learning.

Show moreThe Computer-Assisted Career Guidance Evaluation Form, was developed to evaluate the effectiveness of CACG systems in performing three vital functions in career decision-making. This instrument was subsequently used to compare the effectiveness of DISCOVER, SIGI, and SIGI PLUS using 132 subjects from two cohort groups of students in an introductory psychology course. After finishing their assigned system, subjects completed the Computer-Assisted Career Guidance Evaluation Form, My Vocational Situation (MVS) by Holland, Daiger, & Power (1980a), and the Occupational Alternatives Question (OAQ) (Zener & Schunelle, 1972). Results of the analysis of the data showed that all three CACG systems were rated positively. However, subjects who expressed a need for career information rated all three CACG systems significantly more effective (p < .001) in developing and evaluating career options than those subjects who perceived no need for information. Further, Subjects who were "undecided" about their career direction found SIGI PLUS significantly more helpful for obtaining self knowledge and occupational knowledge (p < .05), and more rewarding and enjoyable (p < .03). The results suggested that perceived effectiveness of CACG systems may be related to the state of client career decidedness (OAQ) and their need for career information (MVS).

Show moreThe decision to seek career counseling services as an adult arises from a complex interaction of past experiences, current career development, and expectations for assistance. This study explored how these multiple motivations impact the service delivery of computer-assisted career guidance systems. The subjects were selected from adults who had sought services from a university-based career center and who were voluntarily participating in a research project designed to collect data on this population. The subjects selected for this qualitative component of the study were chosen on the basis of the following factors: sex, age, head-of-household, anticipation of career change, interest in exploring career options, willingness to use a computer-assisted career counselor, and willingness to complete a contract for service provision. The study was intended as a process of exploration and discovery. As such, open-ended interviews were conducted prior to, during, and after each subject's computer experience. It was found that the adult subjects participating in this qualitative study differed in terms of the complexity and time frame for their career decision making in comparison to "typical" adolescents and young adults who receive services from university-based career centers. The subjects had expectations that they receive professional assistance that would help in: 1) structuring the career decision making process; 2) clarifying self-knowledge; and 3) gaining access to career information resources. The extent to which this expectation was met varied with each subject. Implications for the practice and for future research have been presented to stimulate further exploration in this area of career guidance for adults.

This list of references may be used by researchers, students, practitioners, and teachers to develop or enhance their understanding of Holland’s work over the past 55 years. Analysis of this bibliography may be used to consider the state of Holland’s work from 1953 to early 2007. We examined the rate of publication over time; topics being researched including the application, theory/validity, and alternate forms of his work; as well as how Holland’s work is being used with diverse and specific populations. Data indicate that Holland’s work has been consistently present in references published since 1953 and contrary to speculation by some, references related to his work are not declining. Further analysis indicates a continued interest in the use of Holland’s work with both diverse and specific populations including gender, race, ability, and occupation. We examined the type of references such as journals, book chapters, dissertations, and presentations as well as the quality of journal publications. Journals appear to have the largest number of references although a significant number of references were identified in the other sources. The rate of publication in six prestigious professional journals was examined in comparison to 191 other journals. Finally, we documented strategies and materials used in the creation of this bibliography in order to encourage the development of comprehensive bibliographies on other theorists and applications.

Three groups were studied, those completing the skills matrix in the portfolio, those using the portfolio but not the skills matrix, and those not using the portfolio. Results indicated only one difference across the groups on the five skills self-ratings completed by the students. Specifically, those completing the portfolio skills matrix were less likely to report having taken steps to develop workforce skills than those not using the portfolio. Other findings pertained to difficulties in conducting research on the effectiveness of online career portfolios and suggestions for correcting such problems in the future.

Show more“Evidence-based practice” is a catchphrase often heard in the field of contemporary human services (Dimmitt, Carey & Hatch, 2007; Levant, 2005), but one sometimes wonders how much true understanding is associated with it. It is no small irony that counselors may adopt what sounds like good practice, e.g., narrative-based approaches, in the absence of supporting evidence or research. Our observation is that career counseling practice is sometimes driven more by concepts and ideas than research evidence. This paper focuses on developments that occurred 40 years ago in counseling, particularly career counseling, and seeks to resurrect this evidence-based approach to standard practice.

More than 16,320 students were involved in these studies from 1976 to 2001. This review has been framed in terms of the outputs and outcomes of career course interventions. We reviewed 38 studies of career course outputs, such as career thoughts, career decision-making skills, career decidedness, and vocational identity, which are theoretically related to outcomes of career interventions, such as persistence (retention) in college, and job satisfaction or satisfaction with field of study. In this analysis, we found 34 studies (90%) reporting positive gains in measured output variables, and 4 studies (10%) reporting no changes in output variables. We reviewed 15 studies of career course outcomes and found nine studies (87%) reporting positive gains in measured outcome variables, and two studies (13%) reporting no changes in outcome variables. These findings are similar to the studies regarding output variables and the effects of career courses. The paper concludes with an analysis of this body of research and implications for further research in this area.

Show moreOne-stop centers have been established as a proactive effort to improve the delivery of employment and related social services. Due to the relatively recent emergence of one-stop centers as a major policy initiative in service delivery, limited evaluation and research data are available on one-stop center operation. This study was designed to provide data on current national trends regarding (1) the types of information and assessment resources available to customers in one-stop centers, and (2) the nature of staff support provided in one-stop centers for customer use of information and assessment resources. Descriptions of current functioning can be used by states as a starting point in making or revising planning decisions about one-stop services as well as providing a foundation for subsequent one-stop evaluation and research. One-stop centers were nominated by state one-stop directors to respond to a survey questionnaire on the basis of being perceived as exhibiting exemplary practice or as having fully implemented their respective state one-stop implementation plan. Results were obtained from 69% of the one-stop centers receiving the questionnaire. In general, data from this study provided at least partial evidence that some one-stop design principles have been operationalized in practice at exemplary or fully operational one-stop centers. Customers appear to have access to a range of one-stop services via a variety of service delivery modes. Some evidence of service integration among collaborating organizations was also shown. It may be possible to enhance the effectiveness of services provided to one-stop customers by" (1) increasing the utilization of information professionals in the delivery of information resources; (2) using credentialing as a strategy to maximize the likelihood that staff have the skills needed to meet diverse customer needs; (3) clarifying policy and procedures regarding the availability and support required for standardized and self-assessment vocational measures; (4) increasing the use of written plans to guide and monitor the use of information and assessment resources; (5) increasing the use of group interventions when possible; and (6) ensuring that all staff who provide direct services to customers have training and supervision appropriate for their role.

Show moreThis report describes the efforts of the Career Center at Florida State University to implement the localization options in the DISCOVER and SIGI PLUS computer-assisted career guidance (CACG) systems in 1991-1992. A review of the literature and current use of localization suggested that it is a complex, underutilized extension of CACG software. Use of the localization feature raises issues about the nature of the desired client outcomes, the type of information to be included, the processes and costs for installing and using the feature, and who in the organization should be responsible. To determine what types of information to include in localization, career advising staff were surveyed, two staff meetings were held, and user feedback on the two CACG systems were examined. It was decided to emphasize local information that would accomplish the goals of (1) providing instructions to improve client interaction with the CACGS and reduce client confusion, and (2) linking clients with other Career Center resources and activities. Primary localization efforts were directed toward DISCOVER because the software design was more compatible with the two program goals noted above. This report includes a discussion of project findings in relation to localization issues, i.e., clarifying the purposes of localization, the influences of system design on localization functioning, the impact of localization on CACG system effects, and the impact of localization on staffing and training. The report concludes with a review of implications for practitioners and system developers of the study of CACG system localization features.

This paper reviews literature on the "demand side" of general education by first providing a brief synopsis of the notion of general education and recent recommendations for reform, and next summarizing research on student knowledge of and attitudes toward higher education and general education. Because of the paucity of "demand side" research, the paper shifts focus to processes used in higher education to affect demand side questions, including teaching, recruitment and admissions, orientation, academic and career advising, and course scheduling. The paper ends with conclusions on the importance of attending to "demand side" issues in the improvement of general education programs.

Implementation problems generally involve planning, integration of CACG systems within career services, training, and staff anxiety and resistance. While a considerable amount of research has been conducted on the process of outcomes of CACG system implementation. The purpose of this evaluation is to provide preliminary evaluation data on the implementation of Florida Choice in public high schools. The sample of schools included in this study was representative of high schools in Florida in terms of school size (small, medium, and large) and school location (urban and rural). All participating schools had been using Florida Choice for at least two years. A total of seventeen Florida high schools, representing both rural and urban geographical areas participated in this study. The results of this study were consistent with implementation problems that have been noted in the literature. Implementation factors, such as enablers, barriers, and additional resources needed, appeared to be consistent across schools. Irrespective of being from a small, medium, or large school, staff perceived training, collaboration, and resources as key implementation issues. Recommendations for improving implementation of Florida Choices are presented.

Show moreThis evaluation report of the Women’s Leadership Program in Paraguay was produced at the request of Higher Education for Development with support from the United States Agency for International Development. It was prepared by Flavia Ramos-Mattoussi and Venus Caballero, consultants to HED. The Women’s Leadership Program in Paraguay (WLPP) was a three-year (2012-2015) higher education partnership funded and supported by Higher Education for Development (HED), in cooperation with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID/Paraguay). HED worked with EGAT/ED and USAID/Paraguay under the Women’s Leadership Program to support the partnership between the National University of Asuncion (UNA) in Paraguay and the University of Florida (UF) in the United States. The WLP Paraguay partnership contributes to the primary objectives of the overall Women’s Leadership Program framework. It supports national and local development goals in Paraguay that promote gender equality and female empowerment in the agricultural sector. The evaluation team composed of Dr. Flavia Ramos-Mattoussi (international consultant) and Ms. Venus Caballero (local consultant) was contracted by HED to conduct the external (end-of-project) evaluation of the WLP-Paraguay to learn how the partnership has contributed and could continue contributing to the promotion of gender equality and female empowerment in agriculture. The team examined the following aspects of the program: (1) efficiency of management processes and systems; (2) relevance of program design; (3) effectiveness of program implementation; (4) impact of program intervention; and (5) potential for program sustainability. The evaluation was conducted from February 4 to July 31, 2015. Fieldwork was carried out from April 6 to May 25, 2015, including work in the United States and in Paraguay. The technical report contains data collection tools and analysis of data gathered in the United States and in Paraguay for the External Evaluation of the Women’s Leadership Program in Paraguay (February-July 2015). The report has been published by HED/ACE/ USAID-Development Experience Clearinghouse.

To better understand this method, the current study met its two purposes (a) to illustrate how the Rasch measurement model can aid vocational psychology researchers in increased precision and accuracy in assessment; and (b) to examine the psychometric and measurement properties the Career Thoughts Inventory (CTI), using the Rasch measurement model with a sample of 232 college students. Results from the Rasch analysis confirmed that most of the CTI items on the decision-making confusion, commitment anxiety, and external conflict subscales were functioning as useful measurement items. Yet, these subscale items were somewhat restricted in the range with which they were measuring their respective type of dysfunctional career thinking.

Show moreCareer counselors have interpreted profile elevation on interest inventories for years. The interpretation has been based on counselor judgment and not empirical research. A few studies, along with the current study, have attempted to find some empirical evidence for the validity of interpreting profile elevation. This study explores some variables that have the possibility of being related to this construct. The participants were composed of students in an undergraduate career development course (N = 270). An analysis of variance revealed no relationship between student profile elevation and age, classification, ethnicity, or high point code. A significant relationship was found between profile elevation and gender. Further analysis revealed a gender by race interaction in which African-American women had lower mean profile elevation than African-American men. The findings are discussed in the context of past research, current interpretability of profile elevation, and future research needs.

Show moreThis paper proposes models for serving job seekers that utilize (1) self-help services, (2) brief staff-assisted services, and (3) individuals case-managed services to maximize staff resources in one-stop centers. After the need for maximizing staff resources is discussed, the evaluation of one-stop centers is examined in terms of the limitations of existing services and the one-stop response. One-center design is explored via design principles, services provided, the functioning of career resource center, and the use of computer technology. Levels of support are discussed in relation to the needs of job seekers and options for matching needs with staff support options (self-help services, brief staff-assisted services, and individual case-managed services) are reviewed. Two models are then proposed the maximizing staff resources in meeting the needs of job seekers. A model for determining the support necessary for job seekers to make effective use of information and assessment resources is presented, followed by a model that includes specific service delivery sequences for self-help services, brief staff-assisted services, and individual case-managed services. Potential resources for screening of job seekers in one-stop centers are then presented followed by the conclusion.

Show moreThis study evaluated the effects of DISCOVER for Adult Learners and SIGI PLUS on career decidedness, vocational identity, and perceptions of computer use for 116 adults seeking services at a self-help oriented career center. Adults were randomly assigned to either DISCOVER for Adult Learners (DAL), SIGI PLUS, or a control condition that involved unstructured use of print and AV materials in a university career center. Use of DAL and SIGI PLUS by adults resulted in positive gains in vocational identity. Subjects in the control condition and subjects using DISCOVER experienced a significant increase in career decidedness. Adults perceived both systems as having a positive impact on three dimensions of computer effectiveness, Analysis, Synthesis, and Computer Effect. The conclusion was that computer-based interventions are equivalent to more traditional career interventions. Implications of these results for practice and further research are discussed.

Show moreExecutive Summary Many questions persist regarding the use of psychotropic medication in Florida’s child welfare system. The purpose of this report is to (1) describe both the broad and local contexts (including research and policy) for the use of psychotropics in child welfare, and (2) to propose a research agenda which could realistically lead to improvements in the Florida system. This technical report provides an overview of the issues that are most relevant and pressing for the Florida child welfare system. The report also presents a set of recommendations that can improve the knowledge base through the development and implementation of empirical research that can produce relevant and valid findings for future practice and policy. The prescription of psychotropic drugs to children in the child welfare system has rightfully attracted increasing attention over the past decade. Over this same time period, the profession of psychiatry has experienced a series of important debates, critiques and controversies about the use of psychotropic medication with adults and children. These have taken place at both the scientific and practice levels. This is important to note because practices in the Florida child welfare cannot help but be impacted to a large extent by “upstream” dynamics. Significant problems include (1) the integrity of the scientific literature that concerns the use of psychotropic drugs; (2) the nature and scope of the influence of pharmaceutical companies on prescribing patterns; (3) the regulatory rigor of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; (4) the accuracy of psychiatric diagnosis that provides the basis for prescribing decisions; and (5) the efficacy of psychotropic drugs and their long-term impacts on children. The disconnect between the scientific data and conventional wisdom is likely to be large and represents a major barrier to evidence-based prescribing and decision-making. In such a vulnerable population, such issues should raise deep concerns. The relative lack of influence of the emergent scientific data on conventional psychiatric medication practices is significant and represents major barriers to evidence-based prescribing and decision-making. The long-term effects of psychotropic medication during childhood are only beginning to be understood, but most researchers agree that these are non-trivial for the children involved. In light of this situation, the special vulnerabilities of the child welfare population as a subset of all children using such medications should raise deep concerns and inspire an abundance of caution.

Data were collected from a sample fo 180 clients over a 16 month period, using the information provided in the professional summary report of the SDS:CV. Social and Enterprising types were the most common client codes (57%), and the mean Vocational Identity score from the My Vocational Situation was 5.26. Additional data about the client group was examined regarding the secondary constructs from Holland's theory of congruence (expressed vs. assessed Holland codes), differentiation, consistency, commonness, need for information, and vocational choice barriers. Low vocational identity items endorsed by 80% of the clients were also identified. An analysis of cost information for software and staff resources indicated that the SDS:CV was used at a cost of $10.10 per client in this setting. Discussion focused on the application of research information provided by the SDS:CV in designing career interventions, using the secondary constructs in career counseling, developing outreach programs, comparing and contrasting the paper and computer versions of the SDS, and the use of theory-based career interventions.
