Interest Differentiation in High School and Vocational Indecision in College

Lunneborg, Patricia W.

Journal of Vocational Behavior, 7, 3, 297-303, Dec 75

In a sample of 1622 students in college for three years, 24 percent indecisive students were found and compared with vocationally decisive students (having majors) using precollege measures of achievement, aptitude, and interest. Measures of interest differentiation were of particular concern. Most important to vocational indecision, however, was lower academic achievement. (Author)
