| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 輔導與諮商研究所 === 99 === The purpose of this study was to verify and analyze “the Key to Employability Model” in Taiwan. This study examined the Key to Employability Model variables of general skills, emotional intelligence, reflection and evaluation, self-efficacy, self-confidence, and self-esteem. Participants of the study were 768 graduating students in universities who completed the “University Student Employability Scale.” The author used descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s product-moment correlation, canonical correlation, path analysis, structural equation modeling, and multiple-group analysis to analyze the data of the study.
The study discovered that graduating students have intermediate level on general skills and high-intermediate level on emotional intelligence, reflection and evaluation, self-efficacy, self-confidence, and self-esteem. The research found that some of the graduating students reach the significant difference at the scores of the University Student Employability Scale in various backgrounds, such as male vs. female, public vs. private university, university vs. college, and with vs. without job experience. To sum up, the article discussed that the elements of the Key to Employability Model are significantly positive related to each other, and exist one group with significant canonical correlation. The path analysis revealed that general skills and emotional intelligence have indirect effects on self-efficacy, self-confidence, and self-esteem through reflection and evaluation. In the structural equation modeling, the research verified that the Key to Employability Model can be consistent with these data. In the multiple group analysis of the Key to Employability Model, the study also demonstrates that graduating students with different background variables have invariance.
According to the research findings, the article provides some suggestions for university students, university educators, guidance and counseling professionals, government policies, and other related studies in the future.
