Abstract

Holland's RIASEC calculus and Prediger's World-of-Work Map are viable heuristics for portraying vocational interests as they relate to vocational choice. These heuristics presuppose that at least one of Holland's hypotheses about achievement, stability, or satisfaction is theoretically and empirically sound. This paper questions the utility of the RIASEC and World-of-Work heuristics by presenting evidence that challenges the aforementioned hypotheses. A rationale is given for vocational psychology to direct its energies elsewhere.
