Abstract
AbstractThe field of career education measurement is in disarray. Evidence mounts that today’s career education instruments are verbal ability measures in disguise. A plethora of trait names such as career maturity, career development, career planning, career awareness, and career decision making have, in the last decade, appeared as labels to scales comprised of multiple choice items. Many of these scales appear to be measuring similar underlying traits and certainly the labels have a similar sound or “jingle” to them. Other scale names are attached to clusters of items that appear to measure different traits and at first glance appear deserving of their unique trait names, e.g., occupational information, resources for exploration, work conditions, personal economics. The items of these scales look different and the labels correspondingly are dissimilar or have a different “jangle” to them.
