Abstract: The Chinese Vocational Interest Inventory of Holland Type was constru cted by following Holland's vocational interest theory (Holland RIASEC theory)and considering the charateristic of Chinese conditions and vocational classification. In two studies we cross-validated the inventory's construct validity in both convergent and discriminant validity aspects by applying confirmitory factor analysis. The results showed that the convergent and discriminant validity was good, and suggested substantial support for the inventory's RIASEC construct validity.

Key words: construct validity, convergent validity, discriminant validity, confirmitory factor analysis
