Answered by Examlex AI CopilotThe criterion keying method used to develop the Strong Vocational Interest Blank (SVIB) involved identifying items that discriminated between groups of individuals known to have different vocational interests. This was done by administering the SVIB to groups of individuals already working in specific occupations and comparing their responses to those of a control group. Items that consistently differentiated between the two groups were retained, while those that did not were eliminated.
In the development of later versions of the instrument, such as the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory (SCII) and the Campbell Interest and Skill Survey (CISS), several procedures were changed. These changes included updating the occupational scales to reflect changes in the workforce and the addition of new scales to measure interests and skills that were not included in the original SVIB. Additionally, the scoring and interpretation methods were refined to provide more accurate and comprehensive results for individuals completing the assessments. Overall, the criterion keying method remained a central component of the development process for these later versions, but it was supplemented with additional research and validation techniques to ensure the instruments' continued relevance and effectiveness.
