... According to academics, quality workforces are the key to ensuring the development of highquality childcare services (Rad et al., 2022). To deal with the shortage of childcare educators, 1 we should, on the one hand, learn from the team-building experience of preschool 2 teachers to solve the turnover problem of in-service teachers in terms of salary, social security and work pressure and, on the other hand, be alert to the upstream movement of teacher turnover, i.e., childcare educators are already lost when students majoring in childcare make their career choices (Hong et al., 2020;Shi et al., 2022). This study aims to investigate the career choices of student teachers majoring in childcare and analyses the factors influencing their career choices to address the teacher recruitment issue in the childcare industry in China. ...
Introduction
Guided by the Factors Influencing Teaching Choice (FIT-Choice) model, this study investigates the career choices of student teachers majoring in childcare and analyses the factors influencing their career choices to address the teacher recruitment issue in the childcare industry in China.
Methods
A total of 444 participants from vocational colleges were selected, and questionnaires were used to ask about their career choice intention and the influencing factors.
Results and discussion
The FIT-Choice model is theoretically acceptable, although the subscales for personal utility value should be reformulated. Students majoring in childcare have a positive but weak intention to become childcare educators. Their career choice intentions are jointly influenced by their social influences, task perceptions, values and fallback career, with task perceptions and values playing mediating roles between social influences and career choice intentions.
... The scale of all variables was included in the confirmatory factor analysis. The method uses Cronbach's Alpha coefficient and composite reliability (CR) to determine the reliability of the questionnaire and the internal consistency between variables (Shi et al., 2022;Wang et al., 2022). If the alpha value is greater than 0.7, a combined reliability of more than 0.6 indicates internal consistency between the observed and latent variables. ...
This study explores the compensation incentive effect of athletes. Based on the related literature, we proposed theoretical hypotheses on the compensation incentive effect and established an assessment index system of the compensation incentive effect for athletes. A structural equation model was used to test the survey data of 352 athletes in six provinces to discover the truth of the compensation incentive effect. The results suggested that direct economic compensation satisfaction, direct non-economic compensation satisfaction, and indirect non-economic compensation satisfaction had significant positive effects on the compensation incentive effect of athletes, while indirect economic compensation satisfaction showed no significant effect. Moreover, the evaluation results of athletes’ compensation incentive effect showed that direct economic compensation satisfaction contributed the most to the influence factor of the compensation incentive effect. Therefore, the evaluation of athletes’ compensation incentive effect should focus on variables of direct economic compensation satisfaction, i.e., basic compensation satisfaction, bonus income satisfaction, and subsidy satisfaction. Finally, some strategies and recommendations were suggested to improve the compensation design for athletes.
