Participants (N = 48, aged 14-20) filled in online questionnaires on self-concept clarity (SCC), general indecisiveness and difficulties with study choice (CDDQ). Regression analyses showed: (1) a positive association between self-concept clarity and difficulties with study choice; (2) a positive association between self-concept clarity and general indecisiveness; (3) a positive association between general indecisiveness and difficulties with study choice; (4) general indecisiveness fully mediated the relationship between self-concept clarity and difficulties with study choice. This implies that general indecisiveness is the most important factor in this mediation model, which is important to know for being able to help students in their decision-making process. Probably the way the constructs were measured plays a large role in explaining our results. Repeating this research with a larger sample in the future is recommended and if this leads to the same results, it is important to further investigate the differences on self-concept clarity and difficulties with study choice between educational groups.Show less
