Abstract

In this study, cluster analysis, using rho as an index of profile similarity, was used to classify 45 KPR occupational profiles for men and a group of 42 profiles for women. For men, 7 interest groups were produced; 5 interest groups were found for women. Tables are presented showing the occupational classifications. Comparability to the Kuder and Strong groups is considered. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
