SANTOS, Adriana Ricci dos  and  RIBEIRO, Marcelo Afonso. Adults career guidance and counseling intervention assessment: an integrative review. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.2, pp. 109-121. ISSN 1984-7270.  http://dx.doi.org/10.26707/1984-7270/2021v22n201.

This article presents an integrative review about the evaluation process of adult career guidance and counseling interventions. SiBIUSP, SciELO, PePSIC and PsycINFO were the databases adopted for screening with key words corresponding to the diverse nomenclature related to those practices around the world. 42 empirical studies published between 1978 and 2018 were analysed on who, what and how evaluation is done. The review summarizes methodological resources adopted, confirms an opportunity gap on adult career intervention evaluation research and points to a need of expanding research from decision making to career maintenance issues for this population.

Keywords : evaluation; counselors; vocational guidance; counseling; adults.
