Writers and Critics: Two Types of Vocational Consciousness in the Art System

Helson, Ravenna

Journal of Vocational Behavior, 12, 3, 351-62, June 78

Vocational interests, personality, work environment, and background of authors and critics, male and female, in children's literature are examined in terms of Holland's theory of vocational types. On SVIB indicator scales, both authors and critics score as artistic types with "consistent" profiles, but authors are more "differentiated." (Author)
