Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The Career Indecision Profile-65 items (CIP-65) is an instrument with four empirically validated dimensions of career indecision: Neuroticism/Negative Affect (NNA), Choice/Commitment Anxiety (CCA), Lack of Readiness (LR), and Interpersonal Conflicts (IC). The aim of this study is to adapt and validate the CIP-65 for the Portuguese population. On the basis of a sample of students ( n = 442), the results demonstrate the presence of the four theoretically proposed factors. Thus, this study evidence suggests that the CIP-65 is a measure of career indecision with cross-cultural validity, and it can be utilized in the assessment of difficulties in the decision-making of young Portuguese people.
