An IBM card profile for the Strong Vocational Interest Blank

Abstract

In order to eliminate the expense of manual duplication and filing of profiles two cards were designed, one for men, one for women, in such a way that holes punched in the front of the cards would indicate the letter grades on the various occupational scales printed on the back. In addition, the standard scores were coded so that frequency distributions and hence, statistics, could be obtained for each occupational scale. The code system developed for each occupational scale on the Hankes report forms for men and women can be combined to form 7 class intervals of 10 standard score units each.
