Interest patterns for certain degree groups on the Lee-Thorpe Occupational Interest Inventory

Abstract

Means, standard deviations, and the percentiles corresponding to the mean scores, are given for the ten scales of the L-T Inventory, for Arts students (N=2380), Chemists (N=170), and Engineers (N=578). The differences between the mean scores for the Arts group differ, on every scale, from the means for the Engineer group by an amount significant at the one per cent level; the mean scores for the Arts group differ from those for the Chemist group on seven scales; the mean scores for the Chemists differ from the means for the Engineers on five scales, at the same level of confidence.
