Abstract

This study investigated the relationships between self-ratings and test scores of vocational aptitudes and interests. Participants were 564 eighth-grade students in four middle schools who rated 6 aptitudes and 12 interests on the Self Rating Form and later completed the Occupational Aptitude Survey and Interest Schedule. A canonical correlational analysis between self-ratings and test scores revealed 10 statistically significant canonical variates accounting for 97% of the common variance. Univariate correlations between the same-named constructs for self-ratings and test scores ranged from .10 to.56. The results are discussed in terms of the related literature.
