The purpose of this study is to explore the factors influencing the self-reliance of adults with developmental disabilities, focusing on career developmental factors. The subjects of this study were the 2024 Work and Life Survey of Developmental Disabilities conducted by the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Korea Employment Development Institute for the disabled. For the analysis of this study used were frequency analysis, mean comparison, correlation analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis(stepwise selection). The main results of the analysis are as follows. First, The average self-reliance will score of adults with developmental disabilities was 2.20, indicating that the guidance for self-reliance is generally weak. Second, the career development factors of adults with developmental disabilities, such as planning, job skills, and coping ability, were all found to be low. Third, comparisons of the mean values for self-reliance and career development(planning readiness, job skills, coping ability) across demographic variables(age, and education) were statistically significant. Fourth, it was confirmed that the career development factors that influence the will to be independent in adults with developmental disabilities are coping ability, job skills, and planning ability. These results are significant in that they reveal a high correlation between career development factors and the will to be independent in adults with developmental disabilities, and that they seek ways to improve the will to be independent in adults with developmental disabilities according to the level of career development factors. These results indicate a high correlation between the self-reliance of adults with developmental disabilities and factors(planning readiness, job skills, coping ability) related to career development, and hold significant meaning in seeking ways to enhance their self-reliance. The implications of this study suggest the possibility of linking career education with the research direction for improving the self-reliance of individuals with developmental disabilities through the relationship with career development factors.
