Development and Services: A Cognitive Approach.
,A new way of thinking about career development.
Cognition - ANSWER The way we think or how we process information in our heads.
CIP theory-based approach - ANSWER Cognitive Information Processing.
Based on ideas about how our brain takes in, codes, stores, and uses information and
knowledge in career problem solving and decision-making.
Career problem characteristics - ANSWER 1. Can be defined in terms of a gap between what
exists and what we want. It's the difference between what's happening and what, ideally,
we want to happen.
2. Career problems are often complex and involve feelings; they present ambiguous cues or
signals. The complexity comes from conflicting desires and motives, pressures from others,
and feelings such as worry and embarrassment.
3. The solution to career problems often involves multiple options, not just a single correct
choice. Each option seems to affect others, interdependently, so the best solution is typically a
combination of options.
4. There is almost always some uncertainty about the outcome of the choice. No chosen
solution to a career problem comes with a guarantee for success and satisfaction.
5. A decision about a major career problem almost always leads to another set of problems
that are not fully known beforehand.
