This study examined the mechanisms by which career learning experiences affect Chinese college students’ career decision-making difficulties, incorporating the mediating role of career decision-making self-efficacy. A sample of 1,737 college students completed Chinese versions of the Career Exploration and Decision Learning Experiences Scale, the Career Exploration and Decision Self-Efficacy–Brief Decision Scale, and the Career Decision-Making Difficulties Questionnaire. The results indicated that there were significant associations among career learning experiences, career decision-making self-efficacy, and career decision-making difficulties. Meanwhile, the mediating model offered a good fit to the data. Most career learning experiences had both direct and indirect effects on students’ career decision-making difficulties. The implications of these findings are discussed for further research and practice.
