The Future of Vocational Psychology: Aiming High.
Fouad, Nadya A.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v59 n2 p183-91 Oct 2001
The strengths of vocational psychology include quantitative foundations, theory-driven research, and focus on vocational assessment. Weaknesses are overemphasis on quantitative methods, lack of context, and class-bound perceptions of work. Threats include appropriation by related disciplines and the practice of vocational counseling by those outside the profession. (Contains 26 references.) (SK)
