About the Author

The Career Decision Profile™ (CDP) is a six scale, 16-item inventory designed to measure "career decision status". It assesses how decided individuals are about their career choice; how comfortable they are about it; and their reasons for being undecided: Self-Clarity; Knowledge about Occupations & Training; Decisiveness; and Career Choice Importance. It has been the subject of many research studies since its publication in 1988 and has been translated into several languages.

Counselors use it to:

1. Screen for Readiness (a 7-step sequence used to guide clients through the decision-making steps of career counseling as described by Peterson, Sampson, Reardon, and Lenz, 1996);
2. Evaluate career counseling and career guidance programs; and,
3. Explore the nature of clients' career indecision in individual and group career counseling.

It can be counselor or self-scored. For assistance in using and interpreting CDP results, see "The Career Decision Profile: Using a measure of career decision status in counseling" by Lawrence K. Jones & Raychelle Cassada Lohmann, Journal of Career Assessment, 6, Spring, 1998, pp. 209-230.

A manual with interpretive tools will be available soon as an ePublication.
