Abstract

The Meaning of Life and Meaning of Work (MLMW) counseling program developed in France has been adapted in the Danish context of young migrants in transition. The effects were assessed by using instruments such as Career Decidedness Scale (CD), Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS), Meaning of Life Questionnaire (MLQ), and Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS). The results for the CD and CAAS scales show a nonsignificant effect. However, for young people experiencing transition, there was a significant increase in both SWLS and MLQ-Search scores. The impact of the program on Danish youth in transition and recommendations for future research are discussed.
