Summary/Abstract: This study aims at pointing out how some of the classical socio-demographic factors affect people’s ability to make career decisions early in life. We have selected three relevant dimensions for this: gender, social environment, and ethnicity. As a tool for measuring the concept of career decision/indecision we used two well-known instruments designed for this purpose: CDDQ (Career Decision Difficulties Questionnaire) and CDMSE-SF (Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy - Short Form), both adapted and validated on the Romanian population.
