Popis: | The primary purpose of this study was to obtain estimates of internal consistency reliability, as well as to examine evidence of the construct and criterion validity of the Career Maturity Inventory-Revised (CMI-R) in a sample of male and female high school students. Results found modest reliability for the CMI-R. Participants scoring higher in CMI-R attitudes appear ready to make wise and congruent occupational choices. Sex and grade differences showed that females tended to manifest more career mature responses than did males across grade levels. Additional research on item functioning and on the factor structure underlying the inventory is suggested. |
