A total of 420 Indian emerging adults (18-25 years) were administered self-reported questionnaires. Both PROCESS mediation analyses and path analysis using SPSS AMOS were computed. Both parents authoritative and authoritarian parenting styles predicted career indecisiveness. The passion component of grit emerged as a significant mediator, as supported by the PROCESS mediation analysis. These findings offer new methodological and practical insights, highlighting the significance of culturally relevant career counseling interventions, integrating both familial influences and noncognitive traits.
