Regarding career construction theory, this study examined the theoretically expected outcomes associated with specific
dimensions of career adaptability in relation to future work self. For instance, when controlling for career adaptability dimensions of control, curiosity, and confidence in the tested model, concern added to the predictive efficiency of future work self in career planning. This result confirms the relevance of future time perspective in the engagement of career planning (Marko & Savickas, 1998; Savickas et al., 1984) and is congruent with the expectations of career construction theory (Savickas, 2013). In a somewhat different vein, confidence and curiosity offer explanatory power through their indirect effects in predicting proactive skill development and proactive career networking respectively. That is to say, that having the confidence to engage in skill development and
the accompanying belief that one can overcome the barriers and obstacles associated with skill development conform to the
expectations of career construction theory. Likewise, being curious and exploring the environment such as meeting new people
and broadening one's professional network in order to secure desired work also is in line with the theory. Accordingly, the career
adaptability dimensions of concern, confidence, and curiosity conform to theoretical expectations in line with their hypothesized
relationships as specified in career construction theory. Further, the effect of future work self and the combined effects of career
adaptability observed herein underscore the dynamic and useful nature of these concepts when studied in conjunction. This type
of synergy among the constructs has also been observed in the employment status of job seekers (Guan et al., 2014). Results such
as these show the overall utility of how motivation toward a desired future and career adaptive processes relate to engagement
behaviors necessary for career management.
