Summary:碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 輔導學系 === 86 === The purpose of this research is to investigate the present condition of and the correlation between the junior college students'' self-concept and career development needs, and the differences on the two variables in view of different student background. The method of questionnaire survey was adopted in this research to collect data. 915 boys and girls were selected as research samples from the junior college students in Tainan area, class as unit, by means of stratified sampling. The returning questionnaire copies were 732. The research tools used here were Chen Chin-i''s (1996) "The Scale of Vocational Student Self-concept" and the researcher''s self-made " The Scale of Junior College Student Career Development Needs". After the test, all the data were processed with statistics such as t-test, Pearson product-moment correlation, multiple step-wise regression, one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, etc. According to the findings in the research, the conclusions are as follows: 1. Academic performance, interpersonal relation and moral sense affect the junior college students'' self-concept. 2. Junior college students have high needs in total and each factor of career development. 3. Male, studying in industrial departments, or senior students in junior college have better self-concept. 4. Female, studying in nursing or pharmacy department, or junior students in junior college have worse self-concept. 5. Girls studying sursing or pharmacy have higher needs in "social skills". 6. Junior college student''s background variables make no significant difference on their total career development needs. 7. Junior college student''s self-concept has negative correlation with the factors of "self-understanding" and "social skills" of career developmental needs and has positive correlation with the rest factors of career developmental needs. 8. As to the prediction of self-concept and background variables on career developmental needs, the factor "morality and honesty" shows better predictability.
