Abstract

<p>The purpose of this study was to gauge the effectiveness of the “Career Construction Interview” (CCI) as implemented in university career education class. Specifically, we investigated the thought processes and actions of students who experienced the CCI seminar style and verified that they were able to make sense of the CCI resources. Since CCI is narrative based, the themes and meanings with respect to life and career revealed by CCI are originally represented as sentences, so it is typical to classify and organize these themes and meanings accordingly. However, this study used text mining. In text mining analysis, context-dependent meaning disappears. The originality of this study lies in the method, which does not create subjective meaning from completed sentences. Rather, we extracted eight words—think, notice, feel, talk, understand, reflect, listen, and write. When these eight words were extracted frequently in the free description, it implied that subjective meaning had been created. This new analysis method demonstrated the effectiveness of the practice type of CCI.</p>
