This research was carried out with the participation of 296 emerging adulthood [Ageranj = 19-26, AgeMean =21.46, AgeSd = 1.29] in different departments ofthe education faculty of a public university in Turkey. Data was gathered through the Dispositional Hope Scale, The Big Five Inventory, Career Adaptabilities Scale and Career Decision Self-Efficacy Scale. A two-stage structural equation model based on the maximum likelihood estimation was used in data analysis. The mediation test in this research was interpreted according to the stages of Baron and Kenny. The structural equation model tested in the research findings was confirmed.  \nKeywords: career construction model of adaptation, hope, personality traits, career adaptability, career decision-making self-efficacy  \nINTRODUCTION  \nCareer Construction Model of Adaptation  \nThis model emphasizes the importance of the interaction of psychological capacities, stable personal characteristics, and career behaviour’s in the adaptation of individuals to the social environment. This model assumes that individuals' personality traits (adaptive readiness) affect their psychological capacities (adaptability resources) positively and that they can acquire adequate career behaviour’s (adapting responses) with the positive effect of these psychological capacities (Šverko and Babarović, 2019) . As a result, the above theoretical explanations show that the three dimensions of career construction model of adaptation are related to each other. However, in recent years, it has been emphasized that empirical studies should be carried out to create more empirical evidence between concepts of career construction model of adaptation (Hirschi, Herrmann and Keller, 2015; Kara, Orum-Çattık and Eryılmaz, 2021; Rudolph, Lavigne and Zacher, 2017a; Šverko and Babarović, 2019).It is anticipated that this research will meet this need mentioned in the literature.  \nAdaptive Readiness (Personality Traits and Hope)  \nAdaptive readiness is the basic psychological characteristic of an individual’ that shows basic preparation and willingness for career development task, career transition, career difficulty and change (Perera and McIlveen, 2017) . Usually adaptive readiness; It is conceptualized with variables such as hope, five factor model of personality, self-esteem, flexibility, future orientation, and dispositional positivity (Kara, Orum-Çattık and Eryılmaz, 2021; Rudolph, Lavigne, & Zacher, 2017a;Šverko and Babarović, 2019) . In this research, five factor model of personality and hope variables were used in the explanation of adaptive readiness.  \nCitation: Kara, A. (2024) .
