Scoring Accuracy of the Self-Directed Search with Ninth-Grade Students.

Elliott, Timothy R.; Byrd, E. Keith

Vocational Guidance Quarterly, v34 n2 p85-90 Dec 1985

Examined the performance of ninth-grade students on the Self-Directed Search during small group administrations monitored by a counselor. Results indicated scoring errors were high in comparison to norms. The percentage of erroneous summary codes was higher while transposition errors were lower, suggesting group administration with a proctor facilitates accuracy. (BL)
