Résumé

First-year university students often experience career indecision and related career decision-making difficulties. Gati, Krausz, and Osipow (1996) developed a taxonomy for understanding the various difficulties contributing to career indecision. The focus of the current study was to examine their taxonomy with a Canadian sample of university students in relation to career decision-making self-efficacy, sex-role identification, and stage of identity development. Our results indicated a significant negative correlation between career decision-making difficulties and self-efficacy, which discriminated among degree of career indecision and whether or not students had changed their career plans since attending university. Also, there were some significant sex-role orientation and stage of identity differences for some of these variables. Implications for career counsellors are discussed.
