What characterizes our test
AFC HOLLAND
For RIASEC global scales, very high internal consistency fidelity (.92 to .96) (sample of 25,288 respondents). The results for the subscales are also very satisfactory overall.
In addition, we adapt our normative data. The adapted European version includes normative data from France and Belgian respondents.
These include as many men as women.
Norms are adapted according to age groups.
Content of items associated with RIASEC scales verified and validated by a committee comprising 3 experienced guidance counselors and a psychometric specialist.
For the RIASEC global scales, almost all of the items retained were validated by a principal components analysis with varimax rotation in 6 components.
Studies carried out on several samples of respondents have shown that the content of the test helps to identify the career choices envisaged.
Several other tests
Internal consistency of scales varies widely from one test to another.
Norms are not necessarily extensive, representative of a Canadian, North American or European population, and adapted for youth and adults.
Content of each item not necessarily reviewed by a committee of several experts or experienced practitioners prior to publication.
No evidence of validity provided directly by a component analysis/factor structure method, thus risking making them more subjective.
No empirical studies have been carried out to determine whether the content of the test has any real links with career choice intentions, the occupations practiced, the programs of study in which students are enrolled, or with the job satisfaction of the people who complete it.
