Abstract:

The aim of this study is to reveal the relationships between unemployment anxiety, career calling and career adapt-capabilities in university senior students. For this purpose, it was evaluated that career adapt-capabilities and career calling of university senior students predicted unemployment concerns. The study group consisted of 212 university senior students aged between 20 and 28 years ( = 22.57, SD = 1.33). Sociometric Questions on Unemployment Anxiety, Career Adapt-Abilities Scale, and Career Calling Scale were used as data collection tool. As a result of hierarchical regression analysis, it was determined that career adapt-capabilities, interest and control sub-dimensions negatively predicted unemployment concerns of university senior students, but the sub-dimensions of career aspiration were not a significant predictor of unemployment anxiety. The findings of the study were discussed and recommendations were made within the framework of the related literature.
