Project MINI-SCORE: Some Preliminary Implications for Vocational Guidance.

Pucel, David J.; Nelson, Howard F.

The purpose of the 6-year Minnesota Student Characteristics and Occupationally related Education Project (MINI-SCORE) is to identify criteria which are useful to counselors and others in the selection and counseling of post-high school vocational-technical students as they choose specific vocational-technical curriculums. Data were collected on 6,400 applicants with a variety of instruments, and three preliminary analyses were conducted. Descriptive data and implications for vocational guidance are reported. Project MINI-SCORE is scheduled for completion in 1970. (CH)
