Mixed-methods study reveals that career adaptability and future orientation expand goal setting in refugees, highlighting the importance of fostering resources for decent work.
Using a full mixed-method design, the study aims to explore refugees’ future goals, and secondly, it aims to examine the relationship between career adaptability and future orientation in considering a breadth of future goals. Results showed that refugees set more frequently materialistic goals and less frequently goals connected to be able to have a “decent job”. Moreover, it was found that career adaptability and future orientation play a crucial role in determining multiple useful goals in refugees for building a decent personal and professional future life in the host country. The results emphasise the relevance to help refugees to set goals related to decent work and to develop career adaptability resources and future orientation.
