The work aims at extending the research into the effectiveness of psychodynamic career counselling for improving career adjustment. The short- and medium-term effects of the PICS (Psychodynamic Intervention for Career Strategies) programme were tested through an RCT conducted on a sample of 82 psychology professionals entering the labour market. It was hypothesised that after completing the programme – at posttest and at 6-month follow-up – participants would have higher scores on measures of career adaptability (assumed as primary outcome) and other secondary career-related outcomes. Overall, the results of the present study suggest a medium-sized effect on the curiosity dimension of career adaptability at 6-month follow-up, despite not fully robust in terms of statistical significance, and other promising impacts suggesting a more relational approach in career construction in those participating in the programme according to the treatment protocol.

心理动力学职业咨询的有效性：关于 PICS 计划的随机对照试验

这项工作旨在将研究扩展到心理动力学职业咨询对改善职业调整的有效性。通过对 82 名进入劳动力市场的心理学专业人士的样本进行的随机对照试验，对 PICS（职业战略的心理动力学干预）计划的短期和中期影响进行了测试。假设完成该计划后 - 在后测和 6 个月的随访中 - 参与者在职业适应性（假设为主要结果）和其他次要职业相关结果方面的得分更高。总体而言，本研究的结果表明，尽管在统计显着性方面并不完全可靠，但在 6 个月的随访中，对职业适应性的好奇心维度有中等影响，
