Initial Validation of a Spanish Version of the Personal Globe Inventory

As an alternative to Holland’s hexagon model, Tracey (2002; 2010) proposed a spherical model consisting of 18 interest types. We replicated previous findings using IRT with a sample of college (n=937) and high school (n=2,793) Chilean students. Participant’s interests profiles were similar to prototypical career profiles obtained from the O*Net.
