Strong Vocational Interest Blank

The Strong Interest Inventory (SII) is a psychological test used in career assesssment. The test was developed in 1927 by psychologist E.K. Strong, and revised later by Jo-Ida Hansen, and David Campbell. The modern version is based on the typology (Holland Codes) of psychologist John L. Holland. The inventory consists of 317 items, each of which asks you to indicate your preference from three responses. The test can typically be taken in 45 minutes after which the results must be scored by computer.

The results include:
 * 1)  Scores on the level of interest on each of the six Holland Codes or General Occupational Themes.
 * 2)  Scores on 25 Basic Interest Scales (e.g. art, science, and public speaking)
 * 3)  Scores on 211 Occupational Scales which indicate the similarity between the respondent's interests and those of people working in each of the 211 occupations.
 * 4)  Scores on 4 Personal Style Scales (learning, working, leadership, and risk-taking).
 * 5)  Scores on 3 Administrative Scales used to identify test errors or unusual profiles.
