Occupational Values Scale

Description

The Occupational Values Scale measures occupational values appropriate for middle school students.  This measure contains four value subscales of 4 items each: two male sex-typed (money, power) and two female sex-typed (family, altruism). Participants rated the importance of each item using response options on a Likert scale ranging from “not at all important” (1) to “very important” (4).
