Abstract
AbstractThe purpose of the study was to determine whether interest test results obtained upon entering Ferris State College could differentiate between 30 successful graduating and 30 nonsuccessful students in collegiate technical programs. A “t” test of significance was used to analyze the differences between means on 46 subscales of the Strong Vocational Interest Blank. The successful male collegiate technical students had significantly higher mean scores on the architect, dentist, mathematician, physicist, engineer, aviator, carpenter, and policeman subscales. The nonsuccessful male students had higher mean scores on the forest service, personnel director, social science teacher, social worker, musician, sales manager, real estate sales, and life Insurance sales subscales. The findings suggest that successful and nonsuccessful male collegiate technical students may be differentiated on the basis of an interest measure.
