Assessing the Structure of Vocational Interests among Bolivian University Students.
Glidden-Tracey, Cynthia E.; Parraga, Marianela
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v48 n1 p96-106 Feb 1996
Bolivian college students (n=98) completed the Spanish version of the Self-Directed Search. Three structural models of interests (Holland's, Gati's, and Rounds and Tracey's) were fit to correlations among scales. Results indicate poor model fit, suggesting that none of the models adequately characterize the interests of Bolivian students and calling into question the models' cultural universality. (SK)
