    The findings of this study support the advantages of competitive classroom settings (as measured by adolescents’ perceptions of a competitive class climate) in enhancing involvement in career-related exploration pursuits. This study utilized data from the PISA 2018 assessments conducted in Italy and Korea. When examining career-related search engagement, we analyzed two aspects: engagement versus no engagement and the number of career-related search activities across nine different types of activities. Our findings are also robust across various sensitivity analyses. Competitive educational environments present both benefits and drawbacks to adolescents’ achievement across multiple dimensions. However, at an individual level, adolescents may find it inadequate to ignore competitive pressures. Therefore, satisfaction with learning engagement in competitive settings may prove more advantageous, including when making career decisions.
