A validating study of the Work Preference Inventory

Abstract

Henderson's Work Preference Inventory is designed to measure personality and interest. The scores of 82 college students on the Inventory were correlated with the ratings of 4 of each subject's close friends on the personality items involved. The results do not justify the use of the Inventory as a measure of personality traits or in college counseling with a normal college population. 12 references.
