Masuda, Aline D.; McNall, Laurel A.; Allen, Tammy D.; Nicklin, Jessica M. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2012
This paper reports three studies examining construct validity evidence for two recently developed measures of the positive side of the work-family interface: work-to-family positive spillover (WFPS; Hanson, Hammer, & Colton, 2006) and work-to-family enrichment (WFE; Carlson, Kacmar, Wayne, & Grzywacz, 2006). Using confirmatory factor analysis, the…

Gati, Itamar; Gadassi, Reuma; Mashiah-Cohen, Rona – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2012
The present research investigated the convergent and incremental validity of the multidimensional model and questionnaire--the Career Decision-Making Profiles ("CDMP," Gati, Landman, Davidovitch, Peretz-Asulin, & Gadassi, 2010)--by comparing it to two prevalent decision-making style models. Study 1 compared the "CDMP" to the Vocational Decision…

Haase, Richard F.; Jome, LaRae M.; Ferreira, Joaquim Armando; Santos, Eduardo J. R.; Connacher, Christopher C.; Sendrowitz, Kerrin – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2011
The purpose of this study was to provide additional validity evidence for a model of person-environment fit based on polychronicity, stimulus load, and information processing capacities. In this line of research the confluence of polychronicity and information processing (e.g., the ability of individuals to process stimuli from the environment…

Sodano, Sandro M.; Richard, George V. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2009
The Medical Specialty Preference Inventory (MSPI; Zimny, G.H. (1979). Manual for the Medical Specialty Preference Inventory. St. Louis, MO: St. Louis University School of Medicine), a measure of medical students' interests, was substantively and empirically examined to identify an underlying factor structure. A factor model for the original MSPI…

Tracey, Terence J.; Rounds, James – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1994
The fit of five models (Roe's, Meir's and Knapp and Knapp's circular order; Gati's hierarchical; and Lunneborg and Lunneborg's four-factor) with Roe's eight vocational interest fields was analyzed using a randomization test of hypothesized order relations and factor analysis. Results showed that Meir's and Gati's models best represented Roe's…

Myors, Brett – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1996
A method based on Spearman rank-order correlation coefficients was applied to the hypothesized ranks among correlations in Holland's hexagon of vocational interests. The procedure was easy to compute and apply and was amenable to comparing the fit in several matrices and to conducting meta-analysis. (SK)

Wallbrown, Fred H.; And Others – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1986
Investigated the construct validity of Crites' model of career maturity and the Career Maturity Inventory (CMI). Results from a nationwide sample of adolescents, using hierarchical factor analytic methodology, indicated confirmatory support for the multidimensionality of Crites' model of career maturity, and the construct validity of the CMI as a…

Bacharach, Samuel; Bamberger, Peter – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1992
Survey data from 215 nurses (10 male) and 430 civil engineers (10 female) supported the plausibility of occupation-specific models (positing direct paths between role stressors, antecedents, and consequences) compared to generic models. A weakness of generic models is the tendency to ignore differences in occupational structure and culture. (SK)

Cheng, Yuqiu; Stockdale, Margaret S. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2003
The construct validity of a three-component model of organizational commitment was tested with 226 Chinese employees. Affective and normative commitment significantly predicted job satisfaction; all three components predicted turnover intention. Compared with Canadian (n=603) and South Korean (n=227) samples, normative and affective commitment…

Tinsley, Howard E. A. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2000
A research review supports the validity of the person-environment fit (PEF) model in vocational psychology; however, sampling inadequacies have influenced results. One PEF example, Holland's hexagonal model, is unsupported due to lack of commensurate measurement; most hexagonal congruence indices are invalid. (Contains 110 references.) (SK)

Muchinsky, Paul M.; Morrow, Paula C. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1980
Economic factors serve to control the degree to which individual and work-related factors can explain variation in turnover. Individual and work-related variables will be more predictive of turnover under prosperous economic conditions than when the economy is strained. (Author)
