Educational and vocational plans and dimensions of identity development of students in the last year of upper secondary schools

Summary/Abstract: This study analysed the relationship of educational and vocational plans and dimensions of identity deve-lopment, of students in the last year of upper secondary school. The study was conducted in semester I of 2014/2015. 585 students participated from three types of school: basic vocational schools (n = 74), vocational upper secondary schools (n = 186) and general upper secondary schools (n = 325). Two questionnaires were used in this study: the Dimensions of Identity Development Scale – DIDS/PL and a short questionnaire on educational and vocational plans. The results showed that individuals with no further educational plans had a lower level of ruminative exploration and higher level of commitment making than other students and higher level of identification with commitment than those, who had not made any decision yet. Students who had decided to start a full-time work after graduating secondary school had a lower level of exploration in breadth than students who had not any vocational plans as well as they had a lower level of ruminative exploration and a higher level of identification with commitment than the others. An interaction effect of school type and educational/vocation plans, in the process of identity formation was not observed.
