| Abstract | The time one spends in university is very important in determining one’s future career. In collectivistic countries like Thailand, family units can play a large role in shaping one’s career path. The aim of this study was to investigate whether family Influence on career choices predicts psychological well-being in Thai university students. A total of 1268 participants took part in the main study. Participants were university students from different regions across Thailand. All participants filled out a demographic information questionnaire, the Family Influence scale, Thai Version, and the Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being. The findings suggest that informational support, financial support, and family expectations predict all factors of psychological well-being. Values and Beliefs only predicted Personal Growth and Positive Relations with Others. The results have major implications for further understanding which types of family influence might positively influence psychological well-being in Thai university students. |
