Expressed and Inventoried Vocational Interests as Predictors of College Graduation and Vocational Choice
Holcomb, William R.; Anderson, Wayne P.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, 12, 3, 290-5, June 78
This is a follow-up study of 195 agricultural students originally tested when they entered college in 1970, now divided into discrepant and congruent samples. Discrepant subjects changed major more often but graduated at the same rate as congruents. The SVIB did not add anything to the student's expressed interests in predicting college continuation.
