SIMOES, Elizabeth; GAMBOA, Vítor y PAIXAO, Olímpio. Promoting parental support and vocational development of 8th grade students. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.1, pp. 1-11. ISSN 1679-3390.
The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of a career intervention (pre-test/post-test) that promotes the parental involvement in career issues, particularly with regard to career exploration, career decision-making and perception of parental support. Participants (42 Portuguese students from 8th grade) were asked to answer a set of dilemmas that implied the involvement of their own parents to be solved. Results show a positive impact of the intervention in the environmental exploration. They also indicate that adolescents' perceptions about parents', or caregivers', interest in their career options are positively associated to their own exploration behavior.
