The Strong Vocational Interest Blank is a test designed to measure or inventory an individual’s vocational interests. This booklet provides an introduction and a practical guide to help vocational counselors understand and use the Blank. Dr. Layton explains how the Blank is scored, how resulting profiles should be interpreted, what is the significance of various patterns of response, what is the relation of interests to other pertinent factors in vocational counseling, and how the Blank may be used in either individual or group counseling. High school counselors will find this an especially helpful resource.
