Abstract

The aim of the study was to describe the relationship between personal resources that are a part ofthe psychological capital and the psychology graduates? satisfaction from their professional situation. Thestudy involved 98 people with a degree in psychology, representing Polish higher education institutions,up to 5 years after graduation. The various dimensions that make up the psychological capital: self-efficacy, hope, optimism and resiliency, as well as satisfaction of the professional situation, have been examined by separate tests such as: the Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, the Questionnaire of Hope forSuccess, the revised Life Orientation Test-evised, the Scale of Measurement of Resilience and the Questionnaire of Satisfaction with the Occupational Situation. The obtained results allowed to conclude thatgraduates in psychology are mostly satisfied with their professional situation and represent above average intensity of variables included in the psychological capital. More over, satisfaction with the pro-fessional situation is associated with all PsvCap?s personal resources, but ultimately it is the hope for success which is its most important asset.
