摘要
We investigated the mediating effect of vocational identity in the relationship between mindfulness and career adaptability among graduates in the early career stage. A quantitative survey research design was used to obtain data from 200 participants who were graduates from a higher education institution in South Africa. Variance-based structural equation modelling (SEM) was employed to investigate the conceptual model. Vocational identity acted as a mediator in the relationship between mindfulness and career adaptability. More specifically, a full mediation model was supported. We found that mindfulness does not have a direct relationship with career adaptability. However, being mindful predicts vocational identity, which in turn predicts career adaptability.
