Abstract
This study is concerned with the development of an instrument measuring decision‐making ability (DMI) and the relationship of scores on this instrument to intelligence, achievement, and participation in extracurricular activities, three variables known to be related to vocational maturity. The DMI was administered to 174 high school seniors, randomly selected from four metropolitan high schools in the Midwest. Chi‐square and analysis of variance were used to test the relationship of levels of DMI scores to each of the other variables. It was found that high DMI scores were associated with: (a) high intelligence, (b) high achievement, (c) high frequency of participation in extracurricular activities. It is concluded that decision‐making ability is related to vocational maturity.
