Abstract

This study examined the cross-cultural validity of the Planned Happenstance Career Inventory (PHCI) for a sample of 262 U.S. college students. The original 5-factor structure of the Korean PHCI was supported in the U.S. sample. Further analysis with career decision self-efficacy and vocational identity status showed evidence of convergent and divergent validity of the measure. Results suggest that career counselors use a customized counseling approach based on PHCI scores. Suggestions for future cross-cultural and longitudinal studies are made to extend the utility of the PHCI.
