A cross-sectional study involving 300 university students in Kazakhstan explored the relationships between perceived psychological and pedagogical conditions, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) perception, and career agency. The study found a weak positive association between perceived psychological and pedagogical conditions and DEI perception, but neither of these constructs showed a significant association with students' career agency.

Why it matters

This research provides insights into how certain institutional conditions and DEI perceptions relate to student outcomes in higher education. Understanding these relationships is crucial for developing targeted strategies that enhance student support, social mobility, and career readiness, especially in contexts with evolving labor markets.

Key insights

  • The study focused on university students aged 18-24 across four cities in Kazakhstan.
  • A weak positive association (r = 0.158, p = 0.006) was observed between perceived psychological and pedagogical conditions and DEI perception.
  • No significant association was found between perceived psychological and pedagogical conditions and career agency.
  • No significant association was found between DEI perception and career agency.
