Zusammenfassung
The literature on career adaptation is vast and based on a range of different measurement
approaches. The present paper aims to explore how different operationalizations of career adaptability
in terms of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence are related from a conceptual and
empirical standpoint. Based on a cross-sectional analysis with 1260 German university students,
we established that the adaptability resources of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence are
significantly related to, but empirically distinct from, measures representing adapting in terms
of career planning, career decision-making difficulties, career exploration, and occupational selfefficacy.
In a follow-up survey six months later, we found that the career adaptability dimensions
partially mediated the effects of adaptivity (i.e., core self-evaluations and proactivity) on planning,
decision-making difficulties, exploration, and self-efficacy. Interestingly, in both analyses, there
was no clear match between adaptability resources and theoretically corresponding aspects of
career adapting in terms of behaviors, beliefs, and barriers. The results suggest that psychological
career resources in terms of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence partially mediate the
effects of more context-general, trait-like adaptivity on different career-specific behavioral
forms of adapting.
