| Popis: | Establishing a good match between abilities and career, there is a need to accurately measure theindividual’s abilities and career orientation. To date, the existing measures of individual multiple intelligencesare lacking of psychometric properties that make them less reliable in measuring the intended constructs.Therefore, HAMBA MI Scale was developed and tested in order to overcome the weaknesses in the existingmeasures. The results of factor analysis using 857 sets of responses from students of one public university inMalaysia indicate the existence of nine factors, which are consistent with the original conceptualization,signifying construct validity. The nine factors were then regressed on Career Orientation variables that comprisePure Challenge, Security/ Stability Autonomy, Entrepreneurial/ Creativity, General Managerial Competencies,and Work-Life Balance. The results indicate that different MI dimensions contribute to the explanation ofvariance in different Career Orientations variables, indicating criterion validity of the instrument. Theimplications of the study are discussed. |
