The experimental group participated in a ten-session growth mindset intervention (45–60 minutes each), while the control group received no intervention. Standardized instruments were used to assess achievement motivation and career decision at three time points: pre-test, post-test, and five-month follow-up. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni post-hoc tests, conducted in SPSS-27.</p> <p><strong>Findings: </strong>Repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant time × group interaction effects for both achievement motivation (F(2, 54) = 21.60, p &lt; .001, η² = .48) and career decision (F(2, 54) = 19.22, p &lt; .001, η² = .41), indicating greater improvements over time in the experimental group. Bonferroni post-hoc comparisons confirmed significant increases from pre-test to post-test in both achievement motivation (Mean Difference = -7.37, p &lt; .001) and career decision (Mean Difference = -11.39, p &lt; .001), with sustained effects at follow-up (p &gt; .05 between post-test and follow-up).</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The findings provide empirical support for the use of growth mindset training as an effective psychological intervention to enhance achievement motivation and improve career decision-making among female graduates. These outcomes underscore the relevance of mindset development during the post-graduation transition and highlight the potential of targeted interventions to support women in navigating career-related challenges.</p> https://www.journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/psywoman/article/download/4019/6910
