The aim of work was to verify the extent to which career decision-making styles and other characteristics of personality contribute to explaining career decision-making difficulties among adolescents. The results confirmed the significance of seven styles in career decision-making as predictors of career decision-making difficulties: procrastination and dependence on others were confirmed as significant positive predictors, speed of making the final decision, locus of control (internal) and aspiration for an ideal occupation as significant negative predictors and willingness to compromise and desire to please others as significant positive predictors. Three styles – information gathering, information processing and effort invested in the process – were not confirmed as significant. Also a significance of optimism and anxiousness was not confirmed.
