A Longitudinal Study of Personality and Choice of Major

Yonge, George D.; Regan, Mary C.

Journal of Vocational Behavior, 7, 1, 41-65, Aug 75

Several aspects of Holland's theory of vocational choice are examined using freshman and senior Omnibus Personality Inventory (OPI) and freshman Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) data for 833 men. Generally, evidence in support of Holland's theory is based on relationships which have been well established and known for a long time. (Author)
