Abstract: The present study constructed a moderated mediation model to examine whether self-control ability mediated the relation between psychological capital and career decision-making difficulties, and whether this mediating process was moderated by social skill. 730 college students (339 boys and 391 girls, M-age=21.08, SD-age=3.27) were recruited in the study to complete psychological capital questionnaire, decision-making self-efficacy questionnaire, social skill questionnaire and the decision-making self-efficacy questionnaire.The results indicated that:(1) Decision-making self-efficacy played a partial mediating role between psychological capital and college students' career decision-making difficulties. (2) Social skill moderated the first half path and the latter half path of the mediation effect. The research conclusion had important theoretical and practical value for promoting the employment of college students.
