Abstract

This systematic literature review delves into the intricate dynamics of career decision-making for senior high school students within the framework of Frank Parsons's model. The findings unveil a nuanced interplay between reason and intuition, challenging conventional dichotomies and highlighting the coexistence of these cognitive processes. Contextual factors, encompassing socio-economic background, cultural norms, and educational environments, emerge as pivotal influencers shaping the roles of reason and intuition in decision-making. Additionally, the study identifies the developmental stage of high school students as a crucial determinant, emphasizing the evolution from intuitive exploration to reasoned decision-making. Significantly, the research underscores the pressing need for adaptive career guidance models. While Parsons's model remains foundational, its limitations in addressing the contemporary job market and diverse student needs necessitate a shift towards flexible and dynamic approaches. Integrating both rational and intuitive elements into career guidance programs is deemed essential for better preparing high school students to navigate the complexities of modern career decision-making. This study contributes valuable insights to the field, advocating for a holistic and adaptive approach that aligns with the multifaceted nature of career choices faced by senior high school students.
