Research on persons with felony convictions readily acknowledges that the stigma associated with incarceration is an obstacle for successful reentry; we, therefore, employed a correlational research design utilizing a survey-based data collection method to investigate the relations among stigma consciousness, career barriers, and career-related self-efficacy in a sample of 148 men with felony convictions. Participants were recruited online and in person from various reentry organizations in the Midwestern United States. Findings revealed that stigma consciousness related to several career barriers and was inversely associated with career-related self-efficacy. Implications for providing services to persons with criminal backgrounds are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).

In real life: a curriculum for developing students' self-efficacy and outcome expectations through purpose-driven career exploration and planning within a core STEM course.

Career planning and exploration are often seen as "out of class" work-important but separate from disciplinary learning. This separation forces students to find time outside their already demanding schedules and to navigate unfamiliar higher education spaces, creating structural barriers and impeding access to these resources. In an effort to create more equitable access to career exploration and education, we developed the "in real life" (IRL) curriculum to provide students with opportunities to reflect on how their academic experiences align with their broader career goals within the context of their introductory biology course.

Nevertheless, most studies failed to test the temporal precedence of its core variables related to individual career development. Thus, we aimed to test this model among 1512 Chinese college students with a longitudinal perspective.
