Spread of vocational interests and general adjustment status

Abstract

The records of 108 veterans were used to determine the relationships between the spread of vocational interests as measured by the Kuder Preference Record and age, IQ, education, and Bell Adjustment Inventory. The general results indicated (1) no relationship between spread of vocational interest and general adjustment status; (2) slight tendency for the older, more educated, and more intelligent veterans to have greater spread-of-interest scores. Other detailed results of the relationships between the several variables and the various Kuder categories are included. 21 references. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
