]. New SCCT models were developed to explain vocational satisfaction and well-being [10,11], and career management [9]. At the core of the original SCCT model, and most of the SCCTmodels that followed, are self-efficacy (i.e., confidence in the ability to successfully perform adomain-specific task, like a specific engineering skill), outcome expectations (i.e., anticipatedoutcomes of a particular behavior), interests (i.e., patterns of likes/dislikes for career activities),and goals (i.e., determination for a particular outcome). Taking this one step further, Lent etal.’s [9] integrative social cognitive model of academic adjustment, derived from both SCCT [1,2] and the social cognitive model of academic satisfaction [10, 11], explains how
