Abstract
This study investigated the moderating effects of various types of career stress in the relationships between career motivation and career preparation behaviors. Gender differences in the moderating effects are also examined between male and female college students. Hierarchical regression was conducted, using data from 574 college students(male 306, female 268). Results showed gender difference existed regarding the moderating effects of various types of career stress. For male participants, employment pressure and external conflict moderated the relationship between career insight and career preparation behaviors. For female participants, external conflict moderated the relationships between career identity and career preparation behaviors as well as between career resilience and career preparation behaviors. In addition, internal conflict moderated the relationship between career resilience and career preparation behaviors. Based on the present findings, limitations of this study as well as implications for future studies and counseling practices were discussed.
