Abstract

The web-based Kuder’s Preference Records 2011-version (KPR V.2011) is an instrument for measuring ten vocational interests. These ten vocational interests are: artistic, social service, literary, clerical, scientific, musical, outdoor, mechanical, persuasive, and computational. The purpose of this study is to conduct a construct validation study (convergent evidence) and profiling vocational interest. The number of participants in this study was 264. Participants were students from various majors, namely: arts, social science, literary, finance, law, health science, natural science, engineering, communication/business sciences, information & computing engineering, and administration/management. The instruments used to test the construct validation study (convergent evidence) is the Holland’s Vocational Preference Inventory and Big Five Personality (NEO-PI). Authors did a vocational interest profiling for students majoring in social science. This research provides three findings. First, KPR V.2011 shares a convergent evidence of personality traits (Big Five Personality, NEO-PI). Second, KPR V.2011 also shares convergent evidence with Holland’s Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI), especially in relevant areas. Third, social service, computational, and musical are the most preferred vocational interests for students majoring in social science. Discussions on the three findings will be discussed further.
