A canonical analysis was performed, relating the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire and the Vocational Preference Inventory. 145 male graduate students were Ss. Three significant canonical relationships were found. Most of the zero-order correlations were low; only 3 correlations (out of 176 possible correlations) were as large (positively or negatively) as .40.

The authors assessed the Vocational Preference Inventory as a discriminator of attachment styles. Although the means for some of the six career interest scales completed by 200 undergraduates varied somewhat across four attachment style categories, substantial within-group variances masked apparent differences. None of the scales met the minimum criterion of F to enter; thus none of these scales discriminated among categories of attachment style.

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to determine whether any personality characteristics, as measured by the Holland Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI), influenced the efficacy of the Jobclub programme. The study used 25 voluntary subjects to assess the relationship between personality profiles and training outcomes, in order to determine whether certain personality factors predisposed subject receptiveness to training success. The results indicated that no relationship existed between personality profiles, as measured by the VPI, and outcomes to the Jobclub training programme. The implications of this finding is that programmes that employ techniques used by Jobclub can be applied in a wide variety of situations, such as in schools or among specifically targeted populations.
