Nadzieja na sukces a trudności w podejmowaniu decyzji zawodowych
Hope for success and difficulties in the career decision-making process

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to analyze the relations between the difficulty of making career decisions and hope for success. Hope for success may be a factor that modifies the quality of decisions, espe-cially in difficult situations. As a source of motivation to act and overcome the obstacles encountered, hope for success influences human perception and behavior when making decisions and taking actions. The study was carried out on a group of 149 students in the final grade of high schools located in the Mazowieckie voivodeship, Poland. The participants were 17 to 21 years old (M = 18.64, SD = 0.69). To measure the variables, we used the Career Decision-Making Difficulties Questionnaire and the Hope for Success Questionnaire. The results indicate statistically significant differences in the severity of the difficulties in making career decisions in people with different levels of hope of success.
