dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to conduct correlation and regression analyses to investigate the relationship between and the contribution of Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five personality traits to Career Decision Self-Efficacy. The research investigated 6 hypotheses. Data for this study was collected from a sample of 200 students receiving education from three American system universities in Beirut (HU, AUB, & LAU). The data were analyzed by using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 20.0 software. Firstly, Reliability Analyses of all measurement instruments were conducted and their factor structure was revised based on the results. Then a correlation analysis was done to test correlation between EI, the Big Five, and CDSE. The results showed that neuroticism was not significantly correlated with CDSE, while Openness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness were significantly positively correlated. Furthermore, the mediating role of Emotional Self Efficacy in explaining CDSE in relation to the Big Five has also been confirmed. Moreover, a hierarchical regression analysis was done in order to test the prediction level of each independent variable. The results showed that Emotional Intelligence, Conscientiousness, and Neuroticism, in order, were significantly predictive of CDSE. Support for these findings was provided. Practice implications for vocational and career counselors were discussed. Results highlighted the importance of addressing emotional intelligence within a counseling context.
