The results indicated: (1) The results of confirmatory factor analysis supported the four-factor structure of time perspective scale: future positive, future negative, adventure stimulus and fatalistic enjoyment; (2) Each dimension of time perspective was significantly correlated with the dimensions of career adaptability and life satisfaction; (3) Career adaptability were found to play a mediating role between time perspective and life satisfaction.
