Abstract:

Blind adult members (N = 43; 25 female, 18 male) of a cassette tape-sharing group were administered Holland's Self-Directed Search (SDS) either by cassette tape or with the help of a reader. In both cases, an assistant marked the answers on the SDS form and computed the scale scores. Mean scores and standard deviations were calculated for each of the six Holland personality types for both male and female participants. Results showed that the Social (S) type had the highest means for both men and women. A majority of the women obtained S as the first letter of their Holland code. S was also the

Abstract:

The staff at the Kent State Student Advising Center has been using John Holland's self-directed search (SDS) since the inception of the Exploratory program. The SDS measures activities, competencies, and occupational interests as they relate to Holland's six personality types. We tested the utility of the SDS in advising, developed a profile of Exploratory students, and discerned if differentiation impacts major declaration and graduation. Increasing self-awareness, developing competencies, and clarifying values are keys to retaining and graduating undifferentiated, undecided students. By unde

Abstract:

A case in the Hong Kong Chinese context is presented in this paper to illustrate the use of both quantitative (Holland's SDS) and qualitative career assessment (Card Sorts) to help a 16-year-old girl overcome career indecision. Guided by both Holland's Hexagonal Career Types Theory and Socio-Cognitive Career Theory, a career counsellor can promote a client's positive changes after two counseling sessions. This case supports Tracey's (2002) and Nauta et al.'s (2002) postulated bidirectional causal path between self-efficacy and interests. In addition, it highlights that partial match instead of

Abstract:

Based on Holland's model (1997), the main aim of this research was to investigate the relationships of the congruence of expressed interests with those required by the workplace, the congruence of unexpressed interests with those that are not required by the workplace, as well as total congruence with job satisfaction. Additionally, this study aimed to explore whether the age and gender of participants influence the effects of overall congruence between workplace requirements and vocational interests on job satisfaction.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThis study looks at the relevance of Holland's Hexagonal Model of vocational interests within a collectivistic cultural context by examining the alignment between RIASEC personality types and occupational daydreams among Indonesian high school students. Informed by a mixed‐methods approach, 649 students completed the Self‐Directed Search (SDS), with a subset participating in follow‐up interviews. Quantitative analyzes supported the model's structural validity, showing significant correlations between adjacent RIASEC types and a moderate fit to the hexagonal structure, as indicated by M

Vocational aptitude and interest are the fundamental factors that education and career counselors utilize to provide suggestions to clients. These concepts are often considered as separate constructs. However, aptitude and interest are interrelated and should both be considered when making career decisions. This study involved as many as 343 university students as participants. Two measurement tools were used: Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS) to measure aptitude and Self-Directed Search (SDS) Holland to measure vocational interest.
