A school learner who is at their final year of study in their academic career will be required to think of career options for their future and it is generally assumed that the learner has sufficient information in order to make this often life changing decision

The purpose of this study was designed to explore whether marital satisfaction can be predicted by using Holland's theory of person-environment interaction.The sample consisted of thirty-seven married couples affiliated with Ball State University.Holland's Self Directed Search (SDS) provided a measure of husband-wife congruence. The Locke-Wallace Short Marital Adjustment Test (SMAT) provided a measure of husband-wife satisfaction. Also, a Personal Data Sheet furnished a classification according to personality congruency and occupational congruence.The hypotheses tested in this study were the following: Hypothesis 1 -- Marital satisfaction, as measured by the SMAT, will be significantly different for congruent and incongruent couples, as measured by the SDS. Congruent couples will have significantly greater marital satisfaction. Hypothesis 2 -- Marital satisfaction, as measured by the SMAT, will be significantly different for congruent and incongruent couples, as measured by the person's stated occupation. Congruent couples will have significantly greater satisfaction. Hypothesis 3 -- Marital satisfaction, as measured by the SMAT, will not be significantly different for males and females.A multivariate analysis of variance, followed by a univariate analyses was performed on the data.The results of the findings was that spousal congruence tends not to be associated with marital satisfaction. The sex of the spouse was found to be significantly related to marital satisfaction as defined by each spouse. None of the other hypotheses of the study was supported. However, a trend was observed for a sex by SDS congruence interaction.

The purpose of this research was to investigate career development of gifted and regular elementary school students. Students in grades four through six from a university laboratory school were examined by ability, grade level, and gender in several areas of interests, using the Holland (1985a) Theory of Vocational Personalities and Work Environments.The Self-Directed Search - Form E (SDS-E; Holland, 1985b) and The Occupational Alternatives Questions (OAQ; Slaney, 1980) were administered to 148 students, 34 of which had been identified as gifted. Holland (1985b) SDS codes were assigned to the SDS obtained scores and the stated occupational choices. Prestige of occupational choices were also assigned, using the socioeconomic index of Stevens and Cho (1985).Demographic variables and hypotheses were tested by MANOVA and ANOVA statistical procedures to determine the nature of relationships between variables.Results indicated overall significant main effects in the MANOVA of obtained SDS codes for the independent variables of grade, sex, and ability. Males scored higher than females on the Realistic code. Females scored higher on the Artistic and Social codes. Gifted students scored higher on the Investigative code. On the ANOVA of the differential variable, there were significant differences by grade and sex, with fifth grade students and females more highly differentiated. / Department of Counseling Psychology and Guidance Services
