Full textAbstract:
This article presents the scientific production over the last two decades concerning the terms Industry 4.0 and Maturity and introduces a conceptual framework for maturity evaluation based on the concept of industry 4.0 readiness. A bibliometric study based on the keywords Industry 4.0 and Maturity is conducted and main journals, authors, countries, and trends of maturity models are analyzed. Based on the analysis, a framework for measuring maturity to evaluate a company’s readiness for Industry 4.0 is introduced. The assessment enables companies to systematically increase the quality of their transformation by providing insights about their readiness level. The theoretical model suggests that the evaluation, when carried out with the detailed model, has the potential to allow companies to systematically increase the quality of their transformation by providing information on their level of readiness

Communication of the maturity of technology through the program/product life cycles helps enhance risk management from the beginning and support decision-making strategies for research, development, and allocation of resources. Currently, many organizations use the technology readiness level (TRL) as a simple metric to indicate the maturity of the technology. This article will discuss the TRL history, define the TRL levels, show how the TRL relates to the technology life cycle, and how the TRL framework contributes to the human readiness level (HRL) structure. Through the TRL advantages and disadvantages, this article will show how the TRL falls short in numerous areas of engineering, including the integration readiness of system/subsystem components and assessment of the readiness of the technology to operate within the human capabilities and limitations. Yet the article also shows how the TRL serves as the foundation for HRL.

The work focuses on the study of psychological readiness for changes and personality’s maturity among the employees of the State Criminal and Executive Service of Ukraine. It is shown that readiness for changes in the reforming conditions is a psychological condition for successful professional activity and personal self-realization of the staff of the criminal and executive service. The content of the concepts of “psychological readiness” and “psychological readiness for changes” is revealed; the purposefulness of the study of personality’s maturity as one of the factors of psychological readiness for changes is substantiated. The purpose of the study was to identify the features of the functioning of psychological readiness for changes in the context of personal maturity of the employees of the State Criminal and Executive Service of Ukraine.
The PCRS (Personal Changes Readiness Survey) method created by A. Rolnic, S. Heather, M. Gold, C. Hull (translation and adaptation by N. A. Bazhanova and G. L. Bardier) and the questionnaire of personal maturity (O. S. Shtepa) were applied to solve empirical problems. The subjects were employees of the State Criminal and Executive Service of Ukraine, who were divided into groups according to the level of psychological readiness for changes. The first group consisted of subjects with a high level of readiness for changes, the second – with a low level.
The scientific novelty of the research is determined by the fact that the author established, for the first time, the features of psychological readiness for changes of the employees of the Criminal and Executive Service of Ukraine in the context of personal maturity. It was found out that the employees of the Criminal and Executive Service with a high level of psychological readiness for changes are distinguished by the greater severity of its components, such as responsibility, depth of experience, tolerance, autonomy, self-acceptance and synergy. It was proved that the groups of the employees of the Criminal and Executive Service with different levels of psychological readiness for changes show differences in the structure of interrelationships between the components of psychological readiness for changes and the components of personal maturity. In both groups, the growth of personality maturity is accompanied by a facilitation of psychological readiness for changes. At the same time, there were almost twice as many interconnections between these phenomena in the group with high level of psychological readiness for changes, which indicated an active interaction between them in this group, in contrast to the low-level group, where this interaction was rather limited. The obtained results allow us to conclude that the subjects with different levels of psychological readiness for changes demonstrate differences both in the indicators of personal maturity and in the structure of interrelations between the components of psychological readiness for changes and personal maturity. Less distinct manifestation of a number of components of psychological readiness for changes and a certain deficiency of its interaction with personality maturity can hinder both the successful professional activity of low-level group and their optimal functioning in the personality’s sense. The results obtained in the study can be used to develop programs for psychological support of the professional activities of the staff of the Criminal and Executive Service at the stage of its reformation.

Full textAbstract:
Over the last five years, Industry 4.0 (I4.0) has gained a lot of attention from industry leaders, policymakers, and government officials worldwide. In an era where new concepts and techniques are introduced continuously, there is a lack of systematic literature review (SLR) on identifying main dimensions, levels, methods to assess the maturity and readiness level toward I4.0. To address this gap, we have chosen our primary objective to provide a critical review of existing literature on dimensions, methods, levels, and current trends to evaluate the I4.0 maturity and readiness models. A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) methodology was adopted to make sure that there is no replication and to maintain complete transparency in the review process. A total of 53 papers were deemed relevant for thematic analysis. From the literature, we have found and proposed 10 main dimensions — Strategy and Organization, Manufacturing and Operations, Supply Chain, Business Model, IT, People, Customers, Product, Services, and Culture, to assess the I4.0 maturity and readiness levels of an organization. Further, a conceptual framework was proposed for the same. This study contributes theoretically to the development of I4.0 maturity and readiness models. So far, this is the first review paper on dimensions of I4.0 maturity and readiness models and is expected to give future researchers and practitioners a holistic guideline to design and develop I4.0 maturity and readiness models.

<span>This study aimed to analyze students' readiness for careers out of their professions by considering the effect of locus of control and socioeconomic status. Career maturity acted as the variable intervening. The quantitative method was chosen to test the hypothesis. A total of 80 students were selected to be respondents based on purposive sampling. Model testing was done by using PLS-SEM. The findings of this study found that the locus of control influenced student career readiness. Conversely, socioeconomic status had no significant effect on their career readiness. On the other hand, this study's career maturity partially mediates between locus of control and career readiness. Regarding the effect of socioeconomic status on career readiness, career maturity in this study was known to have a role as an explanatory or predictor. This study concluded that if students wanted to improve their career readiness, they should pay attention to the locus of control and achieve career success. This study's results contribute to institutions, educators, students, and counselling, informing that individual career maturity is an effective way to facilitate students' readiness in their career decision-making process. Future studies should adopt essential variables related to career readiness that is not examined in this study.</span>

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper aims to present an off-site construction (OSC) readiness maturity model for assessing the readiness of offsite construction companies in the Indian construction sector. Design/methodology/approach The research was conducted in three stages. The first stage consisted of a detailed literature review to document 17 different variables affecting the OSC adoption in India. In Stage 2, 15 semi-structured interviews were carried out where the participants were asked to refine those variables for the Indian context and define what would be different levels of attainment. In the third stage, another set of 5 semi-structure interviews was performed to validate the maturity levels and definitions. Findings A three-level OSC readiness maturity model is presented for discussion. This describes 17 variables at different levels of maturity. Practical Implications The proposed OSC readiness maturity model guides construction practitioners in India through a structured process to enable them to assess their OSC readiness in the market. This assessment enables them to evaluate and benchmark their processes through the strategic and operational phases. The maturity model also identifies the areas of concern and the scope for further development or change to secure the optimal advantage of OSC methods. Originality/value The research produced a model to assess the readiness of OSC adoption in the Indian construction sector. Although the model has been applied to the Indian construction sector, it can easily be modified to accommodate other OSM contexts.

Full textAbstract:
Initially administered in 1961, the Career Maturity Inventory (CMI) was the first paper-and-pencil measure of vocational development. The present research revised the CMI to reestablish its usefulness as a succinct, reliable, and valid measure of career choice readiness, with a few theoretically relevant and practically useful content scales for diagnostic work with school populations up to and including Grade 12. The new Form C was produced by combining rational organization of item content with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In the end, CMI Form C provides a total score for career choice readiness, three scale scores reflecting career adaptability dimensions of concern, curiosity, and confidence, and a score reflecting relational style in forming occupational choices. Initial evidence supports the face, construct, and concurrent validity of the CMI scores as indicators of career choice readiness.

Full textAbstract:
To successfully implement corporate social responsibility within an organization, and to enhance proactive behaviors that support change, it is essential to ensure the members’ readiness for change. However, the question that often arises is how an organization’s level of change readiness can be measured. This paper describes the development of a change readiness evaluation framework based on a maturity model perspective that combines the Analytic Hierarchy Process with the Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation Method; the Delphi method is also used to reach consensus among the participants. This framework takes the relative importance of change readiness factors into consideration and provides detailed evaluation results for each category of factors. The uncertainty and subjectivity that is inherent in the human factor is also considered, and the maturity model approach helps to situate the organization’s change readiness maturity level on a spectrum. The presented case study aims to assess a bank’s readiness for change regarding the implementation of corporate social responsibility. The obtained results attest to an average change readiness maturity level and have several practical implications, such as the necessity of creating a targeted improvement roadmap in response to the evaluation results. Specifically, it revealed the necessity of enhancing the company’s structural factors as well as undertaking further improvement efforts regarding change communication and change recipients’ individual’s attributes.

Objectives: Public health accreditation is intended to improve the performance of public health departments, and quality improvement (QI) is an important component of the Public Health Accreditation Board process. The objective of this study was to evaluate the QI maturity and accreditation readiness of local health departments (LHDs) in Nebraska during a 6-year period that included several statewide initiatives to progress readiness, including funding and technical assistance. Methods: We used a mixed-methods approach that consisted of both online surveys and key informant interviews to assess QI maturity and accreditation readiness. Nineteen of Nebraska’s 21 LHDs completed the survey in 2011 and 2013, 20 of 20 LHDs completed the survey in 2015, and 19 of 20 LHDs completed the survey in 2016. We facilitated a large group discussion with staff members from 16 LHDs in 2011, and we conducted key informant interviews with staff members from 4 LHDs in 2015. Results: Both QI maturity and accreditation readiness improved from 2011 to 2016. In 2011, of 19 LHDs, only 6 LHD directors agreed that their LHD had a culture that focused on QI, but this number increased every year up to 12 in 2016. The number of LHDs that had a high capacity to engage in QI efforts improved from 3 in 2011 to 8 in 2016. The number of LHDs with a QI plan increased from 3 in 2011 to 10 in 2016. The number of LHDs that were confident in their ability to obtain Public Health Accreditation Board accreditation improved from 6 in 2011 to 13 in 2016. Although their QI maturity generally increased over time, LHDs interviewed in 2015 still faced challenges adopting a formal QI system. External financial and technical support helped LHDs build their QI maturity and accreditation readiness. Conclusion: Funding and technical assistance can improve LHDs’ QI maturity and accreditation readiness. Improvement takes time and sustained efforts by LHDs, and support from external partners (eg, state health departments) helps build LHDs’ QI maturity and accreditation readiness.

Full textAbstract:
The article systematizes the subject area of the research on the continuity between preschool and primary education. It substantiates the importance of studying its basic issues, taking into account the personality oriented model of the educational process, which supports the need of a child to be a subject of their life. Emphasis is placed on the differentiation of the concepts «readiness for schooling» and «readiness for school». Accordingly, the content of the concepts «preschool maturity» and «school maturity» has been analyzed and the conceptual groups that represent those notions are identified. It is stated that preschool maturity presents the psychological portrait of the child of the senior preschool age, which collectively represents the indicators of learning, and the competencies acquired during different children activities. The author of the article justifies the concept «school maturity» in relation to the child’s readiness for school, which means, on the one hand, the ability to learn, to be proactive, independent, and, on the other hand, the readiness to realize own resources and personal potential. The application of a holistic approach made it possible to consider readiness for school in developmental, social, cultural, educational and environmental aspects. Basic ideas, singled out by the author, will help teachers thoroughly comprehend the possibilities of optimizing the educational situation of a child in transition from preschool to primary school age. They concern the content of school readiness to organize cooperation with a six-year-old child, the priority tasks of primary school in the context of continuity of preschool and primary education and a child-centeredness, and conditions for ensuring the quality of education in the transition of a child from preschool to primary school. Keywords: continuity, readiness for schooling, readiness for school, preschool and school maturity, educability, learnability, idea, holistic approach.

BackgroundThe use of digital technology in healthcare promises to improve quality of care and reduce costs over time. This promise will be difficult to attain without interoperability: facilitating seamless health information exchange between the deployed digital health information systems (HIS).ObjectiveTo determine the maturity readiness of the interoperability capacity of Kenya’s HIS.MethodsWe used the HIS Interoperability Maturity Toolkit, developed by MEASURE Evaluation and the Health Data Collaborative’s Digital Health and Interoperability Working Group. The assessment was undertaken by eHealth stakeholder representatives primarily from the Ministry of Health’s Digital Health Technical Working Group. The toolkit focused on three major domains: leadership and governance, human resources and technology.ResultsMost domains are at the lowest two levels of maturity: nascent or emerging. At the nascent level, HIS activities happen by chance or represent isolated, ad hoc efforts. An emerging maturity level characterises a system with defined HIS processes and structures. However, such processes are not systematically documented and lack ongoing monitoring mechanisms.ConclusionNone of the domains had a maturity level greater than level 2 (emerging). The subdomains of governance structures for HIS, defined national enterprise architecture for HIS, defined technical standards for data exchange, nationwide communication network infrastructure, and capacity for operations and maintenance of hardware attained higher maturity levels. These findings are similar to those from interoperability maturity assessments done in Ghana and Uganda.

Though ICT is contributing to the economy associated with innovations, inventions and rapid development in almost all aspects of human life, is responsible for climatic degradation. The rapid increase of ICT usage means more costs of doing business, energy consumption, and more environmental challenges. The rapid changing technology reaching Kenya and lack of their understanding has put a lot of pressure on both management and ICT personnel to implement them on a trial and error manner. This has limited the gains meant to be obtained from green ICT despite its technologies availability. The lack of ICT personnel capacity readiness challenges the reaping of green ICT benefits. The study was informed by the G-readiness model and the enhanced G-readiness model. This study purposed to determine the personnel capacities readiness towards green ICT in Kenya. The study was undertaken using the interpretive, inductive multi-case survey study on a population of four data centres and 116 ICT managerial, technical and user personnel that were purposively sampled. Interview, observation, questionnaire and document analysis methods were used to gather data that was triangulated to increase the reliability and validity. The study established the ICT personnel’s G-readiness was very low on both training and professional development perspectives in Kenya. The study’s findings are useful towards the strategic planning for green ICT implementation, cutting down running costs, improving environmental performance of organisations and contribution to the world of knowledge. The findings provide data for informed ICT personnel and workplace readiness alignment, decision making and ICT curriculum development. The study recommends application of green ICT based on established ICT personnel capacity, inclusion of green ICT training in the curriculum, creation of green ICT responsibilities, provision for a green ICT budget and investment into the development of green ICT personnel

Abstract— The acceleration of digital transformation in the industrial revolution 4.0 triggered by Cloud Computing created an expansion of the commercialization of IT services. SaaS ERP is one of the fastest growing cloud computing services and is a solution for SMEs. Although SaaS ERP uses a cloud base, it turns out that not all vendors provide uniform services. The difference in the services provided depends on the differences in Metadata, Security and shared services. These different services can be classified in 4 SaaS maturity levels consisting of level 1: Custom/Ad Hoc, level 2: Configurable, 3: Standardization/Multi-Tenant, and level 4: Scalable and Multi-tenant. The current research on measuring SaaS ERP adoption readiness has not considered this maturity level, even though this difference will have a different impact on each adoption factor. Continuing from the previous research which formulated the factors and weights of adoption, the purpose of this study is to understand the considerations of SMEs in adopting SaaS ERP that is deployed at different maturity levels. By using expert judgment, an assessment rubric is created for each factor at each maturity level. The expert assessment produces a range maturity index which is combined with the weight of each factor to assess the maturity level of SMEs' readiness to adopt SaaS ERP. The assessment rubric developed with expert validation and SMEs can be use as a tool to measure the maturity level of SMEs' readiness to adopt SaaS ERP Keywords— Adoption Readiness, Expert Judgement, ERP, SaaS ERP, SMEs, SaaS Maturity Level

Full textAbstract:
Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) are a framework, originally created by NASA and later adopted and tailored by the US Department of Defense (Graettinger, Garcia, Siviy, Schenk, Van Syckle, 2002) to track the progress and maturity of a given technology. There are a number of derivative readiness level frameworks that have spun off the original TRL framework such as System Readiness Levels, Software Readiness Levels, Integration Readiness Levels, and Manufacturing Readiness Levels, just to name a few. Most of the time, these frameworks have an associated readiness assessment used to identify or assess the precise readiness level status. Human Readiness Levels (HRLs) are a framework used to identify the level of readiness or maturity of a given technology as it relates to its usability and its refinement to be used by a human(s) (Phillips, 2010). There are a number of HRL frameworks or similar (e.g. Human Factors Readiness Levels), yet little attention has been paid to Human Readiness Assessments (HRAs). The purpose of this paper is to review the literature of Human Readiness Levels and introduce a new multivariate Human Readiness Assessment that emphasizes workload, situation awareness (SA), and usability.

Increasingly dynamic and volatile employment trends and the rapid development of the globalization era resulted in the transformation of the world of work to be faster, diverse and challenging to predict. Therefore, individuals are encouraged to have a flexible attitude to adapt and work according to their current career development. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of self-efficacy and academic achievement on career readiness outside the profession through career maturity as a mediator. The survey method with a quantitative approach was applied in this study using a sample of 80 students. This study selected the sample based on purposive sampling on all Office Administration students of the State University of Semarang. Data analysis performed using Smart PLS 3.0. This study tested the proposed model through two aspects: measurement and structural models. This study found that self-efficacy and career maturity positively and significantly affected career readiness outside the profession. Academic achievement, in this case, also affects career readiness, but not considerably. The role of career maturity as mediation has an effect on self-efficacy on career readiness partially. Thus, it can conclude that self-efficacy influences career readiness. These findings make an essential contribution for lecturers and institutions to pay more attention to student career readiness so that their opportunities as university graduates to be accepted into the world of work can run smoothly.

This paper presents the main findings of a survey conducted to evaluate the e-business readiness of small and medium enterprises in Jordan. A questionnaire was administered in the late 2011 to 200 SME operating in different economical sectors in the country. The survey aimed at analyzing the e-business readiness of these organizations by exploring three levels of analysis: the status of the ICT infrastructure, a general assessment of ICT competencies in businesses, an analysis of needs for training and an evaluation of the maturity of the market and the surrounded environment. The results show that the ICT, mainly used for administrative and commercial purposes, is considered as an investment. Its budget is allocated most of the time towards upgrading, creating new services and maintenance. They suggest a strong adoption of basic ICT, such as personnel computers, Internet access, and Web site. Exploitation of these technologies has been marked by the improvements in work organization, time saving and cost reduction. However, most of the SMEs faced problems in training employees, implementation costs and lack of maturity of the market. At the national level, the results show that more maturity is needed in the technical, business, and legal infrastructure.

ABSTRAK
School readiness is children’s readiness to enter elementary school. School readiness is needed so that children can attend all school activities in elementary school well. This study aims to determine the condition of school readiness owned by children before entering elementary school. Method used in this research is survey. Data analysis was carried out descriptively by comparing the average score of each dimension in school readiness. Results show that the average score from the highest to the lowest in the dimension of school readiness are academic knowledge, dimension, physical health and motor development dimension, basic thinking skills dimension, self-discipline dimension, social emotional maturity dimension, and communication skills dimension. Achievement of the average score in cognitive dimensions (academic knowledge and basic thinking skills dimension) and physical health and motor development dimension are higher than non-cognitive dimensions (self-discipline, social emotional maturity and communication skills dimension). This condition needs to get attention because the realization of school readiness is a combination of all dimensions in school readiness. The low in one of these dimension will affect to the overall of school readiness’s quality.

AbstractCrucial in the design process, Technology Readiness Levels are a common form of technology maturity assessment. Studies suggest that the TRL scale can be subjective and biased. Automating the assessment can reduce human bias. This paper highlights important challenges of automation by presenting data collected on 15 technologies from the nanotechnology sector. Our findings show that, contrary to claims from the literature, patent data exists for low maturity technologies and may be useful for automation. We also found that there exists unexpected trends in data publications at TRL 2, 3 and 4.

Abstract This paper provides a methodology to assess the maturity of an organization’s readiness for change based on the use of a Fuzzy Analytic Network Process and fuzzy linguistic evaluation maturity model. This anticipatory approach’s purpose is to evaluate the extent in which an organization is ready to implement a change initiative, in order to enhance supportive behaviors and identify improvement areas before engaging the change and thus reducing change adoption failure risks. A case study for the implementation of an Energy Management System according to the ISO 50001 Standard within a factory operating in the automotive sector is provided. Rather than the classical technical approach found in energy management maturity models, this approach offers an organizational perspective. The use of the Fuzzy Analytic Network Process allows the consideration of the interrelations between factors, while the use of fuzzy logic for the evaluation through linguistic variables helps in taking the uncertainty and imprecision of respondents into consideration. This approach serves as a decision support system for decision-makers by providing the organization’s readiness maturity level as well as the identification of improvement areas that will help ensure a successful implementation of the desired change initiative. In the conducted case study, the obtained maturity level refers to an average readiness for change for the implementation of the Energy Management System and requires the definition of an improvement roadmap, comprising the following elements: ensuring top management leadership and organizational commitment and involving employees as well as internal communication on the personal and organizational benefits of the implementation of an Energy Management System.

AbstractMaturity assessments of technology is a crucial process to identify and acquire compatible technologies for a system’s development. However, being a complex and highly subjective process, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has reported cost overruns and schedule slippages through the years. This study provides a unique Weighted Technology Readiness Level (WTRL) framework which utilizes cardinal factors to ascertain the maturity, schedule and trend of NASA’s 7 Technologies based on their maturity time. The framework utilizes MCDM methods to determine the cardinal complexity of each TRL. It allows the assimilation of other cardinal factors using a simple, open structure to track the overall technology maturity and readiness. Furthermore, this study highlights the importance of tailored TRL frameworks to determine the accurate cardinal coefficient of the said technology and the inferences derived otherwise. It eliminates several limitations of previous frameworks and compares against their performance using a verified statistical representation of processed data.

The research is aimed at analyzing the existing models of digital maturity. The literature review shows that there is scarce information about the theoretical and methodological basis for differentiation of the maturity levels. Most of the evaluation approaches are focused either on digital readiness, or the digital dividends and road mapping. There is a necessity for developing a comprehensive approach to maturity measurement. Hierarchy analysis is proposed as a useful tool for evaluating digital maturity in manufacturing companies. Free software has made the method acceptable in practice. Hierarchy models have been developed for several manufacturing companies to evaluate the digital maturity score and to analyze possible managerial strategies of digitization.

Full textAbstract:
The preschool period is a peculiar stage of child speech and language development in terms of both quantity and quality. Children’s vocabulary increases and the semantic aspect of the words they use extends. Preschool-aged children should make utterances that are relevant to the situation and also know specific grammatical rules. This proves their maturity in this area. The quality of speech and language development shows mainly in children's ability to communicate with different people – both peers and adults. Making fluent utterances becomes noticeable in children’s school readiness. School readiness results from children’s experiences collected thanks to their own activities as well as thanks to the learning received from educational institutions (preschool, school, counseling center) and the family. According to this approach, school readiness can be understood as the preparedness of the child with Asperger syndrome for academic tasks. The literature lacks studies on school readiness in students with Asperger syndrome. School readiness is presented with reference to the developmental norm, taking into account children’s biological maturity and, at the same time, the readiness of appointed institutions and communities to support children’s capacities in individual areas. In the role of students, experiencing the world in purposely designed (academic) situations, children with Asperger syndrome may encounter difficulties. The article discusses the concept of school readiness and its components in the context of communication capacities in students with Asperger syndrome. Theoretical approaches to the elements of school readiness presented are expanded with examples of various situations in which children with Asperger syndrome showed their communication skills. The situations described in the article come from observations made as part of the authors research on support for students with autism spectrum disorders in academic situations.

In an era where organizations are increasingly relying on data to perform their business, the ability of different companies to manage and analyze data will have a significant impact on their efficiency. In this paper, we develop a model to measure the current level of maturity of ICM's data and analytics (D&A) systems and optimize it to maximize the potential of its data assets. Based on the three critical components of personnel, technology, and process, we take ICM requirements as the starting point. After comprehensively considering the current situation of the industry and enterprise needs, an indicator system is built to measure the D&A system. Then, it is used AHP-CRITIC subjective and objective comprehensive empowerment, which determines the weight of each index accordingly. It is carried out the evaluation and analysis of the maturity of the D&A system and finally concluded that the maturity of the system is 0.879, and technology is the key influencing factor. Then this paper uses the System Readiness Level Index from a technical point of view, which includes the Technology Readiness Level index to measure the technological maturity and the integration readiness of the technology integration index, which can comprehensively optimize technical indicators. To maximize the potential of digital assets, we built the SRLmax model under resource-related constraints, equipped with a business process performance management (BPM) indicator system that comprehensively considered people and process components. Finally, we passed the SRLmax-BPM model to the D&A system. After comprehensive optimization, the optimized score is 25.16% higher than the original model.

It is challenging to design a proper eHealth evaluation. In our opinion, the evaluation of eHealth should be a continuous process, wherein increasingly mature versions of the technology are put to the test. In this article, we present a model for continuous eHealth evaluation, geared towards technology maturity. Technology maturity can be determined best via Technology Readiness Levels, of which there are nine, divided into three phases: the research, development, and deployment phases. For each phase, we list and discuss applicable activities and outcomes on the end-user, clinical, and societal front. Instead of focusing on a single perspective, we recommend to blend the end-user, health and societal perspective. With this article we aim to contribute to the methodological debate on how to create the optimal eHealth evaluation design.

Abstract. This study examined the relationship between the secondary constructs of Holland's (1997) theory of vocational interests and career choice readiness (career maturity) attitudes with 358 Swiss secondary students. The hypothesis was tested that the secondary constructs consistency, coherence, differentiation, and congruence are measures for the degree of vocational interest development. Thus, they should belong to the content domain in career choice readiness and should show meaningful relations to career-choice readiness attitudes. The hypothesis was confirmed for congruence, coherence, and differentiation. Interest-profile consistency showed no relation to career-choice readiness attitudes. Vocational identity emerged as a direct measure for career-choice readiness attitudes. Realism of career aspirations was related to career-choice readiness attitudes and coherence of career aspirations. Profile elevation was positively connected to more career planning and career exploration. Differences between gender, ethnicity, and school-types are presented. Implications for career counseling and assessment practice are discussed.

The study analyzed the relationships between high school students’ career maturity, career decision-making difficulties, and career decision-making self-efficacy and aimed to investigate whether career maturity, career decision-making difficulties and career decision-making self-efficacy altered according to gender, type of school, and grade level. The study sample was composed of 665 high school students attending five different high schools in Bursa. The data collection tools included the Career Decision-making Difficulties Questionnaire, the Career Maturity Scale, and the Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale. Among quantitative research methods, a correlation model was applied. The analysis results revealed a weak but significant negative relationship between career maturity and career decision-making difficulties scale in terms of total scores and subscale scores. Additionally, there was a medium- and low-level significant negative relationship between the career decision-making difficulties scale total and subscale scores, and the career decision-making self-efficacy total and subscale scores. The subsequent analysis to describe the mediating role of career decision-making self-efficacy demonstrated that career decision-making self-efficacy had a partial mediating role. Furthermore, male students were found to have a more disadvantaged status than did female students in terms of career maturity. Based on the fact that students’ career decision-making difficulties stemmed from the aspect of a lack of readiness, psycho education programs can be organized to determine the reasons for the lack of lack of readiness, find solutions, and provide the necessary information and skills. Future studies may focus on examining the reasons for the career maturity level differences.
