A Multivariate Analysis of the Effects of the Self-Directed Search on High School Girls.

Holland, John L.; And Others

Journal of Counseling Psychology, v25 n5 p384-89 Sep 1978

Determines how the Self-Directed Search (SDS) achieves its effects. High school girls were assessed before and after treatment for vocational aspirations, knowledge of typology, and information seeking. Nonsignificant findings imply that SDS achieves its effects partly because of its numerous occupational options. Instructional booklets increase the number of options. (Author/BEF)
