摘　　要：This study explores the application of the planned happenstance theory in college students career planning and its impact on career indecision.Traditional career theories emphasize self-awareness and the demands of the work environment but overlook the influence of serendipitous events on individual career development.In contrast,the planned happenstance theory highlights individuals receptivity and ability to leverage unexpected events,viewing them as potential turning points in career progression.Research indicates that students with higher levels of planned happenstance skills exhibit greater career decision-making competence and lower levels of career indecision.Through a survey of 312 students from university A in city X,this paper analyzes the current state of career indecision among the student population and proposes strategies and recommendations,including maintaining a positive mindset,establishing a sound career planning perspective,enhancing planned happenstance skills,and improving career decision self-efficacy.Additionally,the study finds that the revised Strategies for Coping with Career Indecision Questionnaire(SCCI)demonstrates strong reliability and validity among Chinese college students,making it suitable for localized research.
