TY - JOUR AU - Peterson, Robert A. AB - Developed 22 homogeneous content scales for the SVIB by clustering items with high intercorrelations. The resulting scales were named Adventure, Agriculture, Art, Business Management, Law/Politics, Mathematics, Mechanical, Medical Service, Merchandising, Military Activities, Music, Nature, Office Practices, Public Speaking, Recreational Leadership, Religious Activities, Sales, Science, Social Service, Teaching, Technical Supervision, and Writing. Mean scores are presented on each of these scales for 113 occupational samples, and test-retest statistics are included for groups tested and retested over 2 wk., 30 days, 3 yr., 22 yr., and 30 yr. Similar information is presented for several student samples including a group who were tested as freshmen, sophomores, 5 yr., and 15 yr. after graduation. These scales provide some interpretation aids for the traditional occupational scales of the SVIB.
