The purpose of our study was to find out if the components of Older Sibling Relationships namely, Affect, Behaviour and Cognition would be significant predictors for the social dimensions of Career Decision Making styles which are Consultation with others, Desire to Please Others and Dependence on Others. The Lifespan Sibling Relationship Scale (LSRS) and the revised Career Decision-Making Profile Questionnaire (CDMP-Q) were used on freshmen students with no preference over college, a total of n=259. The results show that Sibling relationship is not a significant predictor of Career Decision making styles. Various reasons for the non-significance are explored further in the discussion.
