Career Development Instruments. Monograph Number 5.
Fitzsimmons, George
This document outlines some resources that may be helpful to school guidance counselors and other educators. Five resources are described for the elementary school years when children's natural curiosity and openness can be channelled into understanding themselves and others as well as learning about the meaning of work and the types of work carried out in their homes, schools, and communities. These include Developing Understanding of Self and Others (DUSO-Revised); the Culture-Free Self-Esteem Inventory; the Perception of Ability Scale for Students (PASS); The Test of Cognitive Skills; and the Murphy-Meissgeier Type Indicator for Children (MMTIC). For junior high school students a major objective is to identify general values in relation to work. Useful resources discussed for junior high students include: the Life Roles Inventory; Values Scale; the Safran Student's Interest Inventory; Career Development Inventory (CDI); Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI); and Self-Directed Search. For career and the world of work instruction for senior high school students these career education resources are reviewed: Career Directions Inventory; Jackson Vocational Interest Survey (JVIS); Strong Interest Inventory (SII); My Vocational Situation; Career Maturity Inventory; Life Roles Inventory: Values Scales and Salience Inventory; General Aptitude Test Battery; and the Differential Aptitude Test.
