Four-Year Validity of Holland Types for College-Bound Males and Females.

Prediger, Dale J.; Lamb, Richard R.

Journal of College Student Personnel, v22 n2 p133-40 Mar 1981

Results suggest that sex-balanced interest scores are more valid than sex-restrictive scores across four years of college. Implications for practitioners are noted. (Author)
