How many general occupational themes are included in the Strong Interest Inventory profile?

  1. 4

  2. 6

  3. 8

  4. 10

The correct answer is: 6

The Strong Interest Inventory identifies six general occupational themes that categorize interests and preferences in various work environments. These themes, derived from John Holland's theory of career choice, allow individuals to better understand their work-related interests and how they align with different career paths. Each theme corresponds to a specific personality type and helps individuals identify potential careers that may be fulfilling based on their interests. The six themes are: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional, collectively referred to as the RIASEC model. This framework serves as a valuable tool for career exploration and guidance, making the recognition of these six themes essential for effective vocational counseling.
