Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing career anxiety among high school (SMA) and vocational high school (SMK) students in Ambon City. The study employed a descriptive quantitative approach with a sample of 115 students selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, criterion-referenced assessment (PAP), exploratory factor analysis, and normality testing.The results indicate that the students' level of career anxiety falls into the moderate category, with a mean score of 213.96, a minimum score of 160, and a maximum of 258. Based on the criterion-referenced assessment, 79 students (68.7%) were in the moderate category, 20 students (17.4%) in the high category, and 16 students (13.9%) in the low category. The most dominant factor influencing career anxiety was self-efficacy (mean score of 47.67), followed by achievement motivation (30.42), parental support (30.25), school environment (28.93), career information (27.40), family socioeconomic status (27.26), and peers (22.03). Factor analysis results showed a KMO value of 0.634 with a significance of 0.000, indicating the data were suitable for analysis. These findings demonstrate that both internal and external factors play a role in influencing students' career anxiety, with self-efficacy being the most dominant factor.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of career guidance services on the career planning of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 7 Ambon. This research was motivated by the fact that some students had not yet developed mature career plans. Therefore, career guidance services are needed to help students understand their potential, obtain information about higher education and the world of work, and make appropriate career choices. This study employed a quantitative approach using an ex post facto research design. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique, while data were collected through career guidance service and career planning questionnaires that had met the requirements of validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, and simple linear regression analysis with the assistance of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results of the study indicated that career guidance services had a positive and significant effect on the career planning of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 7 Ambon. This finding was supported by the hypothesis testing results, which showed a t-value of 4.236 with a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating that the research hypothesis was accepted. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R Square) was 0.236, indicating that career guidance services contributed 23.6% to students' career planning, while the remaining 76.4% was influenced by other factors beyond the scope of this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that the better the career guidance services provided, the better the students' career planning. The findings of this study are expected to serve as valuable input for guidance and counseling teachers in improving the quality of career guidance services to help students prepare for higher education and their future careers in a more focused and systematic manner
