Strong Vocational Interest Blank scores and differential attraction to in individualized curriculum.

Abstract:

:Research suggests that preference for and effectiveness of instructional methods vary with individual differences in personality and motivation. Students who had taken the Strong Vocational Interest Blank (SVIB) and were completing an individualized course in preclinical dentistry made a hypothetical choice between individualized and traditional curricula. As compared with students preferring the regular option, those preferring the individualized optipn scored higher on interests in scientific, aesthetic-cultural, and adventuresome activities and on motivation for academic achievement and professional specialization. On occupational scales, they were more similar to those in biological science and social service and resembled less those in skilled trades, business and accounting, and sales. The groups did not differ in Dental Aptitude Test scores or grades. Findings from the SVIB and questionnaire data suggest that individualized programs are especially suited to students with high intellectual interests, academic motivation, self-discipline, and organization. Implications for individualized programs are discussed.
