Abstract

While the importance of school counselors in fostering college connectedness and career readiness has been acknowledged in professional literature, little research has looked at how those in administrative and supervisory positions see their efforts. In light of this, the purpose of this study is to find out the perceptions of school directors and student’s supervisors of guidance on the importance and existing practices of career development in the Cambodian context. A total of 90 high school directors in Phnom Penh participated in this study. The instrument was adapted from the Directors and Supervisors of School Counselors Career Development Survey was given to members of the high school directors of guidance in order to assess their opinions regarding career development practices. Collected data were then analyzed by using the descriptive and inferential statistics via SPSS program. The findings revealed that the relationship between participant perceptions of importance and subsequent perceptions of existence of career development practices were statistically significant (r = .51; p < .001). It was also found that the predictive relationship between participant perceptions of importance and subsequent perceptions of the existence of career development practices were detected as statistically significant (B = 0.92, t (50) = 4.15, p < .001). This study helped shape future policy and current career development practices in high schools by offering insight into the ways that career development methods through school counselors need to be improved.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to examine whether and to what extent Technostress Creators (TSC) and Technostress Inhibitors (TSI) predict the level of Transformational Leadership (TRL) among academic administrators at the Preah Sihamoniraja Buddhist University (PSBU) in Cambodia. Methodology: The study used a quantitative predictive correlational design with 123 PSBU academic administrators (e.g., rectors, deans, and department heads) selected through total population sampling. Data were collected using two instruments: the Technostress Creators and Inhibitors scale (TSC/TSI) and the Multiple-Factor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ 5X) for transformational leadership. The instruments were back-translated and validated for clarity and reliability. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with computer-based methods. Main Findings: The findings revealed that techno-insecurity (T-INS) was the only statistically significant predictor, negatively associated with TRL. Other TSC and TSI variables were not statistically significant predictors. Overall, regression models for TSC and TSI did not significantly explain variation in TRL levels. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study is significant at the theoretical and practical levels. Theoretically, this study broadens the understanding of technostress and transformational leadership style. Practically, this study can be used to examine how academic administrators in higher education perceive technostress and its effects.
