Document Summary
Inventory different interest measures: the two most widely used interest tests wee introduced relatively early: the. Strong vocational interest blank in 1927, and the kuder preference survey in. 1939: today there are more than 80 interest inventories, however the strong remains one of the most widely used tests in research and practice. In the revised 1966 version, the 399 items were related to 54 occupations for men, and a separate form was presented to women with 32 different occupations. It was also determined that patterns of interest remain relatively stable over time. In 1974, campbell published a new version of the svib which he called the scii: the scii was campbell"s response to the shortcomings of the svib. In addition, special precautions were taken to rule out potential difficulties in interpretation: for example, one criticism was that the members of the criterion group were older than those that would be entering into the workplace.
