Thirdly, the subfactors of career maturity, namely, determinacy, participation, independence, tendency, and compromise, had statistically significant differences according to year and age. Lastly, career maturity and department satisfaction considerably influenced career stress: when department satisfaction and career maturity were lower, career stress was higher. These results indicate that department satisfaction and career maturity correlate with career stress.

This study examined differences in beauty majors' career maturity and career decision-making depending on the grade and analyzed the relationship between the career maturity with the career decision-making to present basic data for guidelines that would help any relevant field with their career consultations and education targeting those students majoring in beauty at college. A total of 336 beauty majors in the metropolitan area were selected as the research subjects. The study confirmed that the higher the grade, the greater the career maturity. The students who had a higher level of career maturity tended to be included in the reasonable career decision-making category while those students with a lower level of career maturity were determined to conduct dependent decision-making. In terms of the career decision, the students in the higher grades were reasonable enough to make decisions logically because they collect various information through systematic stages but when it comes to the students in the lower grades, they were divided into the intuitive type that would reach a decision through emotional self-recognition depending on how one feels at this moment or what situation one is going through as well as the dependent type that would let people or environments influence one's decision-making. The grades of the students tended to cause differences in the career maturity and the career decision-making, and the significance between the two variables was proven. If the relevant fields carry out systematic grade-focused programs and career guidance not only to improve the career maturity of even the lower graders but also to encourage the students to make reasonable decisions, such programs and career guidance will be a help when the students try to determine a career.
