Abstract
We hypothesize that visual interventions for life and career design, in contrast to current verbal and written practices, can positively support life design sessions. Our exploratory experimental study shows a positive impact of visual treatments in increasing participants’ Self-esteem, Efficacy, and life design skills and in reducing Anxiety toward the future. Female participants seems to find greater benefits than males: further studies should investigate the role of gender as a potential moderator in visualization’s effectiveness for life design.
