The intent of the Vocational Interest Inventory is to provide an intra-individual profile of interests across eight activity foci: service, outdoor, science, business contact, organization, technology, general cultural, and arts and entertainment. The inventory, which may be group administered, employs as ipsative, forced-choice format for both 56-item sections, "Occupations" and "Activities." The inventory was analyzed on a sample of high school juniors. It was initially scored by summing, separately for each section, the items answered in the keyed direction for each of the eight interest areas. A hand-scoring key is included in the manual (TM 000 784). (MS)
