Holland’s stereotypes
peoples impressions and generalizations about work. By studying these, he came up with his 6 types.
(holland) congruence
the relationship between the personality and their environment. the more similar the personality is to the environment, the more congruent the relationship is;
most important of the concepts
(holland) differentiation
the realtionship between and the relative importance of the different types. both people and environments have different levels of differtiation
holland) consistency
the relationship of the types to each other
-how far/ close they are to eachother on the hexagon (as distinguished by line thickness_)
-not a goal of counselling
counselling implications for undifferentiated people:
likely to have difficulty making career decisions
goal of counselling is to help people differentiate
-sometimes more work experience is needed to increase differentiation
identity
the clarity and stability of a person's current and future goasl.
What is a theory:
Logically organized laws or relationships that constitute an explanation for a phenomenon

Provides a foundation to understand and predict behaviour
Provides a consistent perspective on human nature that will help direct and organize info
Holland's core constructs
-6 personality types and environments
-occupational matches to personality
-people and environments make up a combination of the 6 types
-congruency is the most important factor
-differentiation, and consistency are also important points in determining a good occupation
Holland's assumptions
Conflicting occupational roles and goals may result in inconsistent and divergent career patterns
Self knowledge is critical to vocational satisfaction and stability
Occupational homogeneity provides the best route to self-fulfillment and a consistent career pattern
People search for environments that will let them exercise their skills and abilities, express their attitudes and values, and take on agreeable problems and roles

Behaviour is determined by an interaction between his/her personality and the characteristics of his/her environment
Core constructs within Super's theory
"self-concept", "developmental stages", "recyling", "internal characteristics" like needs, values and interests and "life roles"
assumptions of super's theory
Vocational development occurs in stages
(2)The degree of satisfaction from work is proportional to the degree to you are able to implement self-concept and find adequate outlets for abilities, needs, values, and interests
people differ in their abilities and needs
occupations require a characteristic pattern of traits
through out life, vocational preferences and competencies change
how happy people are with their work depends on how they are able to implement self concept
the career pattern depends on many things, including pervious work experience and SES
life span (super)
summarizes the rainbow of life stags and roles that make up a comprehensive longitudinal picture.
super (internal influences)
-needs
-intelligence

-skipping a stage can result in difficulties at later stage
Growth stage (super)
1st stage. Self-concept develops through the identification of activities taking place at home and at school
Exploration stage (super)
2nd stage. career exploration and research in part time jobs and leisure activities

3rd stage: stabilizing, a person has found an appropriate place to work. Is trying ot establish permanency in this field.
maitenance stage ( super)
4th stage:
do i want to do this for the rest of my life?
if no, go back to exploration and establishment
if yes, maintain good parts of work, and work on bad parts
disengagement
The person experiences a decline in work hours, and new roles replace the work roles
Super's different life roles: 7
child
student
worker
parent
homemaker
leisurite
Recycling
(super)
Re-assessment of career plans results in mini-cycles (e.g. re-entering the exploration stage, etc.)
Not everyone does things at the same time
One may recycle at various stages at any time
Transitions between stages is characterized by “recycling”

main point of krumboltz's social learning theory:
individuals make career decisions based primarily on behaviours (actions) and cognitions (thoughts or beliefs)
2 goals of krumboltz's theory:
-increase understanding of what motivates human behaviour
-gaine understanding of how thought processes influence career development
Assumptions of the social learning theory
people can learn new things
interaction with environment infleucens career decisions and behaviours
more experience helps to make better career experiences
Social learning theory Concepts and constructs 4
beliefs about career arise from these 4 things:

genetic endowment,
environmental factors,
instrumental and associative learning experiences,
task approach skills

basically, people are influenced by the way they are socially reinforced
social learning theory ASSUMPTIONS
Client’s cognitive functions provide a model of the world and their relationship to it

Irrational beliefs about work and the self can be a barrier to success

Positive reinforcement and exposure to, or mimicking of positive role models impacts how we generalize our learning outside the initial situation
social learning theory: how to help clients
-postive reinforcement of client behaviours
-be a positive rolemodel
-Clarifying goals

Countering a troublesome belief
E.g. negative self statements

Point out inconsistencies between words and actions

Cognitive rehearsal: Replacing negative thinking with positive thoughts
Self-concept: a person’s subjective view of self & society; the core of Super’s developmental theory
Development of one’s self-concept is based on a variety of factors, which impact career development: (1) development of internal characteristics; (2) external social-economic factors
Five stages of development
Life Roles
Career Maturity/adaptability
super's core constucts
Instrumental Learning Experiences
Associative Learning Experiences
Task Approach Skills
Interactions among genetic endowment, environmental conditions, and learning experiences lead to skills in doing a variety of tasks
Certain task skills are particularly important in career decision making: setting goals, clarifying values, predicting future events, generating alternatives, and seeking occupational information
social learning theory core constructs
The Happenstance Learning Theory (HLT)
Related to Social cognitive learning theory. Is an attempt to explain how and why individuals follow their different paths through life and to describe how counsellors can facilitate that process
Planned happenstance assumptions:
People need to prepare for changing tasks and careers
People should not assume that occupations will remain stable
Exploration will generate chance opportunities for a better life
Diversity of skills enable people to seize opportunities
People can learn to develop attributes and skills that lead to planned happenstance
the goal of career counselling is about a better lifestyle, not just about one career choice
assessments are used to stimulate learning
engage in exploratory behaviours to increase liklihood of positive events
results are dictated by real world success
core constructs of planned happenstance
-help clients integrate chance into their career decisions
-take an active approach to solutions
goals of planned happenstance counselling
-the environment is always evolving
-the individual is always changing
-so, there is no fixed truth
-how individual's perceive the world is based on socially discourse
assumptions of the constructivist theory *very post modern
Barriers-Constraints
to a post-modern counsellor, are stories that constrain a client
ie. people will discredit parts that contradict their story(ie. taken for granted cultural assumptions that play into their truth)
Therapy becomes a collaborative effort in which the therapist works with the client to identify and address the constraints in his or her life

Narrative family therapists map the hidden influences of family, culture, politics, education, and economic forces on what people believe to be true
how therapy addresses barriers and constraints in the Constructionist theory
3 components
Vocational personality
Life themes
Career adaptability
Method of counselling (narrative approach) :
storytelling, identifying themes that emerge and playing them out in terms of work
core constructs: constructionist theory
Realities are socially constructed
People come to understand who they are as part of a life narrative, or story, that brings cohesion and meaningful order to their experiences
How people understand what happens to them in the world and the resulting story they tell about themselves depends on their participation in collective discourses
Realities are constituted through language
There is no essential truth
assumptions constructionist theory
The self is an entity that evolves and transforms from birth to death, not a fixed entity
How individuals understand their worlds is based on socially constructed discourses in which they participate
Individuals can only know the world in ways that their language, co-constructed with others, will allow
