The author reflects on her term as editor of the Journal of Vocational Behavior, articulating questions she continues to have about the field. She reviews the changes in the journal, particularly considering the goals she set out to achieve as editor. She gives some tips for authors from the perspective of reading much of over 5000 submissions in the past 7 years. She discusses the two subfields of research in work and career decisions: vocational psychology and organizational/work psychology and offers some suggestions on reconceptualizing the two “islands” in the field—as Savickas (2001) termed these two areas. Finally, she offers some suggestions for future research in vocational behavior.

作者回顾了她作为《职业行为杂志》编辑的任期，阐明了她对该领域仍然存在的问题。她回顾了期刊的变化，特别是考虑到她作为编辑设定的目标。她从阅读过去 7 年中 5000 多篇投稿的角度为作者提供了一些建议。她讨论了工作和职业决策研究的两个子领域：职业心理学和组织/工作心理学，并就重新概念化该领域的两个“岛屿”提出了一些建议——正如 Savikkas (2001) 所说的这两个领域。最后，她对未来职业行为的研究提出了一些建议。
