本研究目的以個人背景變項、美容工作經驗變項和價值觀變項對就業決策影響研究，並採李克特(Likert type)五點尺度衡量表(1=非常不同意;5=非常同意)，設計問卷「人格特質量表」、「美容工作經驗量表」、「價值觀量表」三部分量表，蒐集研究對象高職美容科學生450人，有效問卷334份。其研究結果如下：
研究結果發現美容科學生在美容工作經驗當中最重視「職業技能」，較不重視「工作環境」。美容科學生在「工作價值觀」是屬於正面，也代表美容科學生對於未來工作的看法是屬於較積極、樂觀的。「自我價值觀」屬於正面，也代表美容科學生對於自我期許是可以自我充實、可以發揮創意。在美容工作經驗方面:「職業技能」增加，會選擇美容美髮相關就業之機率增加。在價值觀方面: 「自我價值觀」愈重視，會選擇美容美髮相關就業之機率愈增加。
