ABSTRACT

A cluster sampling method was used to conduct a survey on college students' career adaptability scale and occupational related parental support scale in a vocational medical college, and SPSS 22.0 was used for data analysis. The results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between the factors of parental support and career adaptability; The regression coefficients of parental verbal support and emotional support are positively significant, while the support of the working model has a negative effect; The regression coefficients of parental verbal support, self-efficacy, resilience, and hope are significant; Parental support has a positive predictive effect on students' career adaptability. From this, it can be seen that family support plays a fundamental role in the employability of college students, and improving the ways and content of parental support can effectively enhance career adaptability.
