Examined the relationship between the Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS) and scores on the Adventure scale of the Strong Interest Inventory (SII) among female college students (n=55). Women scoring high on the SSS scales also scored high on the Adventure scale, thereby supporting the construct validity of the SII Adventure scale. (RJM)

Investigated the feasibility of transferring the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory (SCII) into another culture. Examined engineering and law as occupations among students from the United States and Mexico. Used a validated Spanish translation of the inventory. Cross cultural predictive validity was very similar for all student groups. (Author/KS)

Assessed the construct validity of the Strong Interest Inventory (SVIB-SCII) Adventure Scale for women college students (N=136). Found significant correlations with Jackson Personality Research Form scales that measure willingness to take physical and social risks and an independence-dependence dimension. (Author)

Reviews the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire and the Personal Career Development Profile as tools for vocational exploration and career development. Reliability and validity problems are reported, followed by a recommendation to use the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory instead. (ABB)

Examined the equivalence of two versions of the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory (SCII) using four combinations of paper-and-pencil and computer administrations with college student subjects (N=75). Found slightly better test-retest reliability for the computer-based SCII. (Author/ABL)

Assessed criterion validity of the Strong Vocational Interest Blank - Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory for a heterogeneous sample of American Indian college students (N=49). For the analysis of the concurrent validity between major and Occupational Scale score, the excellent and moderate concurrent hit rate for women in the direct relationship…
