Abstract: The distinction among rational, intuitive, and dependent career decision-making had been the most widely recognized, while intuitive strategy remained relatively unclear. In a sample of 516 people who had recently made a career decision within the last two years, the present study investigated their use of these strategies and person-job fit as well, specifically presenting intuitive strategy in three forms of fast and frugal heuristics, namely, recognition, elimination and satisficing. It was found that people did adopt these three heuristics besides rational strategy, while engaging less in dependent behavior. In addition, there was significant gender difference in the use of recognition, while individuals with different educational background varied in their use of rational strategy and the three heuristics. Results also showed significant differences in the use of recognition and elimination between job changers and first entries. Moreover, only rational strategy and recognition showed significantly positive relations with person-job fit. It was then suggested that various strategies and their respective effectiveness should be taken into consideration in future research and practice.

Key words: career decision-making strategies, fast and frugal heuristics, person-job fit

摘要： 职业决策常分三类：理智型、直觉型及依赖型,但直觉型的内容不明。本研究用自编的职业决策问卷（其中直觉型策略细化为三种启发式）对516名近两年做过职业决策者作了调查。结果发现：除理智型策略外,受调查者还较多使用再认、满意化、排除法这三种启发式,较少使用依赖型策略;性别、学历、求职经验不同者使用的策略有不同程度的差异;理智型策略和满意化对人-职匹配有显著预测作用。这提示应合理认识人们使用的多种策略及其不同作用。
