Researching Developmental Careers: The Career Conformity Scale.
White, James M.
Journal of Family Issues, v8 n3 p306-18 Sep 1987
Developed interval scale to measure deviation from the normative sequencing of first job, marriage, and birth of first child. Scale scores had predictive utility for marital instability and work interruptions. Use of scale score as independent variable provided more information than that provided by Hogan's (1978) temporal sequence categories as independent variables. (Author)
