Tentative
11 to 17 years
This period is an advancement of the fantasy
stage.
It is called tentative because as individuals
mature, they realise that their vocational choices
are subject to change, and that rational choice of
vocations requires some real life experiences.
During the period, the individual begins to realise
that there are some activities he likes and enjoys
doing more than other activities.
He gradually develops interest in those activities
he likes doing while his interest in those he does
not like wanes.
The stage is sub-divided in to four, namely; the
interest, capacity, value, and transition substages.
Reality
17 to 22 years or as late as 24
years.
The age range of this period is said to be more
flexible than the other stages because of
variations in training requirements of different
careers.
At this stage, the individual explores,
crystallises a general occupational choice, and
specifies in the actual occupational choice
within the psychological framework of realistic
thinking.
This stage is also divided into the exploration,
crystallisation and specification sub-stages
