Career Development Theory

Career development theories help make

sense of experiences. A theory is, in effect, a rationalized set of assumptions or hypotheses that allows you to explain the past and predict the future. As such, theories may provide "direction"; and as theories are tested and prove "true", they may be said to expand knowledge.

development across life span.

Super's Theory
Donald Super (1957) and other theorists of

career development recognize the changes that people go through as they mature. Career patterns are determined by socioeconomic factors, mental and physical abilities, personal characteristics and opportunities to which persons are exposed.

 Although Super originally presented the

stages and tasks in a sequential manner, he later added that we cycle and recycle throughout our life span as we adapt to changes in ourselves as well as to the trends in the work place. Understanding these ages and related stages of career development helps the facilitator select appropriate responses and activities.

Super and Thompsons Six Factors in Vocational Maturity

Awareness of the need to plan ahead

Decision-making skills Knowledge and use of information resources General career information General world of work information Detailed information about occupation preference Super also looked at the different roles we play during our lifetimes and the relative importance we give to those roles at different times in our lives.

Ann Roes Theory of Occupational Choice (1956)

Ann Roe, a clinical psychologist, suggested that early childhood experiences are strongly related to occupational choices. Her theory is based on Maslows hierarchy of needs. Needs that are not fully satisfied can be important motivators in our occupational choices.

example
A person aware of a need for security,

is likely to search for work providing a safe environment. Roe theorized that a person is disposed to a certain occupations based upon the way he raised.

ROE THEORY THAT INFLUENCES EARLY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES

Emotional Concentration on the child ranges from overprotection to over demanding, both putting conditions on a parents love and approval. While physical needs are met psychological needs may be withheld.

a. Over protection- the over protected child learns that conformity brings reward, thereby developing a dependence on others for approval and selfesteem.

b. Over demanding- the over demanding parents set

a high expectations for the child and ties approval on the expectations being met or not. Children with this tend to be perfectionist. 2. Avoidance, according to Roe, ranges from neglect to rejection. Within limits both physical and psychological needs of the child are ignored. 3. Acceptance of the Child - whereby physical and psychological needs are met. Independence and self- reliance are encouraged in either an unconcerned, noninvolved way or an active, supportive one.
