Peer reviewedHanna, Gerald S.; Neely, Margery A. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1978
An aspect of construct validity of the six scales of the Career Maturity Inventory was investigated with 127 ninth-grade students.

Peer reviewedChodzinski, Raymond T.; Randhawa, Bikkar S. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1983
This study investigated the factor structure of the 10 subtests of the Career Maturity Inventory (CMI). Although two principal factors emerged, the CMI Competence and Attitude subtests did not load distinctly on the two separate factors. Results also tended to indicate that the discriminant validity of the CMI may be minimal. (PN)
