The Geometric Relationship Between Holland's Personality Typology and the Vocational Preference Inventory for Blacks

Wakefield, James A.; And Others

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 22, 1, 58-60, Jan 75

Holland's Vocational Preference Inventory was administered to 115 black undergraduate college students. The scales for the black subjects correspond generally to Holland's model but not as well as they do for white subjects. Three weaknesses in the correspondence between the scales of black students and Holland's model were identified. (Author)
