Career decision-making difficulties merupakan hambatan psikologis yang lazim dialami siswa SMA kelas X ketika menghadapi pemilihan jurusan yang berdampak langsung pada jalur pendidikan tinggi dan karier masa depan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan gambaran career decision-making difficulties pada seorang siswa SMA serta merancang program intervensi bimbingan karier berbasis tipologi Holland dan Social Cognivite Career Theory (SCCT). Pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus klinis digunakan pada seorang siswa laki-laki berinisial BLC (15 tahun) yang dirujuk guru BK karena kesulitan memilih antara jurusan IPA atau IPS. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara autoanamnesa dan alloanamnesa, serta analisis dinamika psikologis. BLC menunjukkan profil kepribadian Artistic-Social sesuai tipologi Holland, berada pada status moratorium identitas, serta mengalami lack of readiness, lack of information, dan inconsistent information (Gati dkk., 1996). Faktor kontributif utama meliputi rendahnya self-efficacy pada bidang eksakta, tekanan peer group, dan terbatasnya dukungan emosional akibat kondisi merantau. Program intervensi "Pathway to Success" selama 12 minggu dirancang sebagai respon komprehensif. Career decision-making difficulties yang dialami subjek merupakan manifestasi eksplorasi identitas vokasional yang normal secara perkembangan, namun memerlukan intervensi terarah untuk memfasilitasi career crystallization yang sehat.
Abstract
Career decision-making difficulties are psychological barriers commonly experienced by tenth-grade high school students when selecting academic tracks that directly affect their higher education and acreer paths. This study describes career decision-making diffculties in a high school student and designs a career guidance intervention based on Holland’s typology and Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT). A qualitative approach with a case study design was applied to a 15 year old male student (BLC) referred by the school counselor due to difficulties in choosing between the Natural Sciences and Social Sciences tracks. Data were collected through observations, auto- and allo-anamnesis interviews, and psychological dynamic analysis. BLC exhibited an Artistic-Social personality profile per Holland’s typology, was in moratorium identity status, and experienced lack of readiness, lack of information, and inconsistent information (Gati et al., 1996). Key contributing factors included low self-efficacy in exact sciences, peer pressure, limited emotional support from living away from family. A 12-week "Pathway to Success" intervention program was designed as a comprehensive response. The career decision-making difficulties relflect a developmentally normal vocational identity exploration process that requires targeted intervention to facilitate healty career crystallization.
