Holland's Self-Directed Search and NEO Five-Factor Inventory were completed by 146 males and 213 females. For males, Holland types were differentiated by the factors Openness and Extraversion; for females by Openness, Extraversion, and Agreeableness. Significant associations also appeared between these three factors and Prediger's Data/Ideas and Things/People dimensions. (SK)
