Investigative's were selected from two gymnasium city of Vilnius. 409 students take part in the survey. Statistical data has been analyzed with Statistical package for Social Sciences (SPSS 14.0 for Windows).Quantitative analysis were made. Two statistical procedures to analyzed statistical data – computation of percentile frequency of the answers, mean of estimations – were made. The results have reveled, that part of gymnasist's didn't know who is a social pedagogue and what his daily do at school.

The aim of investigation was to reveal the factors that have influence on choosing profession – intellectual capabilities and vocational predispositions.

All of our hypotheses were proved to be partly correct. It was found the positive relations between verbal capabilities (III subtest and I+II+III+IV subtests) and Investigative vocational predisposition, negative relations - between verbal capabilities (II subtest) and Conventional vocational predisposition; mathematical capabilities (V subtest and V+VI subtests) have positive correlations with Investigative and Conventional predisposition, but negative ones – with Artistic predisposition; mathematical capabilities (VI subtest) have positive correlations with Conventional predisposition. All the described correlations are very weak (0,190 ≤ r ≤ 0,276; p < 0,01; p < 0,05 and -0,280 ≤ r ≤ -0,194; p < 0,01; p < 0,05). The research revealed that verbal capabilities (II subtest) of Investigative and Social type subgroup’s are higher to compare to Conventional type subgroup F0,01; 0,05 (4,125) = 3,436; verbal capabilities (III subtest) of Investigative type subgroup are higher...
