Abstract: The current research explores the influence of emotions and occupation quantity on career decision making process for individuals with different career delay of gratification. Forty participants with high or low career delay of gratification were induced to positive or negative emotion. Afterwards, they finished a simulated career decision task displayed through information board. The results showed that:1)Participants with high career delayed gratification were found to have significantly greater search depth and search patterns than participants with low career delayed gratification; 2)Regardless of delay of gratification tendency, participants in positive emotion or low occupation number conditions displayed greater search depth and search patterns in the career decision task; 3)Participants with high career delayed gratification carried out more searches based on different dimensions of occupation attributes across different level of occupation quantity. As a concept closely related to the future career planning, career delayed gratification reflects the impact of individual career planning on their career decision-making processes.

Key words: college student, career decision making process, career delay of gratification, emotion, occupation quantity
