Reflection Questions:
1. In 2–3 paragraphs, compare and contrast one traditional theory of career counseling and development with one recent theory of career counseling and development. What are the major differences in how each theory describes the career decision-making process and goals for career counseling?
2. In 2–3 paragraphs, discuss any insights you have gained about the use of traditional and recent career theories with diverse and/or marginalized populations in your area of specialization. How do cultural issues affect career counseling? What have you learned about specific populations (e.g., persons with disabilities, gender minorities, etc.) that you did not know previously? How might you use this information in the future?
