Abstract

This study explored the connection between psychology courses and transferrable professional skills. The attainment of skills was measured through a pre and posttest of the “The Employable Skills Self-Efficacy Survey” (ESSES) (Ciarocco & Strohmetz, 2017). Participants were psychology students during 2019. Data were analyzed using a multiple linear regression model.
