Holland's Theory and Effective Use of Computer-Assisted Career Guidance Systems

Abstract: ABSTRACT." A variety of client characteristics, drawn primarily from John Holland's theory and constructs, were used to examine client reactions to using a computer-assisted career guidance system. The subjects were 206 individuals who sought assistance at a university-based career center. A regression analysis revealed that persons with higherSocial and Enterprising scores rated the system lower on its ability to help them acquire self and occupational knowledge.

“…Lenz, Reardon, and Sampson (1990) used the construct of Holland's theory to consider issues in implementation and use of CACGS, and concluded that the results supported findings from similar studies which suggested that ''computer-based interventions may be enhanced by insuring that they are not administered as a global, uniform treatment'' (p. 7). Sampson and Norris's (1995) school-based study similarly investigated the implementation of CACGS and identified planning, integration within career services, training, and staff anxiety and resistance as typical problems.…”

Although all respondents knew whose responsibility it is, not all respondents had the opportunity to create or update career information on their school website.…”
