Influences on Job Search Self-Efficacy of Spouses of Enlisted Military Personnel

Released August 2004

The concept of job-seeking self-efficacy is a broad topic, and many facets of JSSE have historically gone unexamined. This study is unique because it looks at what factors contribute to or affect a person’s JSSE, while most existing research pays little attention to how JSSE is shaped or developed. The goal of our study was to learn more about what factors aid or hinder JSSE. We also wanted to learn more about what types of employment assistance programs seem most effective in improving the JSSE of military spouses with civilian careers.
