Dictionary of Vocational Psychology
World-view generalizations
An important construct in Mitchell and Krumboltz's (1996) learning theory of career choice and counseling, world-view generalizations refer to the generalizations that individuals make based on their beliefs about environments they know to environments that they are less familiar with. Such observations may vary in their accuracy. Mitchell and Krumboltz use this construct to account for how individuals come to develop beliefs about occuptions and work environments with which they may have little direct familiarity.
