A FRAMEWORK FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF CAREER INTERESTS

Abstract

A model of vocational interests based on actual work‐tasks is described for practitioners. It is suggested that a things versus people and data versus ideas dimension is descriptive of work as well as career interests. The influence of social learning on the development of interests is outlined and the work‐tasks model is related to the assessment of career interests.
