✦ Synopsis


Nontraditional college students (29 women and 37 men) participated in a career counseling workshop based on Bandura's (197n selfefficacy theov. Participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental treahnent group or a delayed-treahnent control group. Results suggested thatparticipation in the workshop had a significant, positive effect on the career decision-making self-efsicacy of the participants (p < .05) across levels of age, sex, year in college, and family income. Results provide support for career sepefficacy theory and indicate that the career decision-making self-efficacy of nontraditional college students is amenable to change through counseling interventions.
