The Stability of Vocational Interests Within Occupations Over Long Time Spans

Counselors and those responsible for the construction and maintenance of vocational interest inventories need to be aware of change in interest patterns over time within occupational groups. That issue is explored here for the SVIB by asking three questions: first, do the SVIB scales developed in the 1930's hold up in cross‐validations today? Answer: yes, they appear to. Second, when various SVIB scales have been revised, have the revised scales differed drastically from the originals? Answer: not much; in a few instances, there has been no change whatsoever. Third, do the people who today hold exactly the same jobs as those held by Strong's criterion groups of the 1930's have the same interest patterns as the original group? Answer: yes, at least in one occupation, i.e., bankers. Further speculation suggests that men with similar interest patterns have sifted into similar occupations throughout recorded history.

Do Vocational Interest Questionnaires Yield Consistent Results?

Fifty Philadelphia high school boys filled out seven different vocational interest inventories. The interest patterns were analyzed for consistency and the results reported here. This is another article in our series on interest inventories offered as an aid to our readers in evaluating such material.

Pupils Appraise Vocational Interest Blanks

A novel examination of the intrinsic attractiveness and mechanical arrangement of seven vocational interest inventories is reported in this article. It is granted that the ratings made by only fifty high school boys are not necessarily conclusive but they suggest that interest inventories may be subjected to investigations looking beyond statistical reliability and validity.

A Further Study of the Validity of the Cleeton Vocational Interest Inventory*

Readers of the Magazine will recall studies of the validity of the Cleeton Vocational Interest Inventory published in February, 1940, and May, 1941. Here is a further study based on results of the Cleeton and other tests given 300 Springfield College freshmen. The suggestions for improving the Inventory may lead other counselors to add suggestions arising from their own experience with its use.
