Abstract
This article describes an attempt to differentiate Holland's six types by means of personality need variables. Participants were administered Holland's VPI and Jackson's Personality Research Form (PRF). One-way analyses of variance revealed that PRF variables could not differentiate Holland's six types and that the resulting personality descriptions were not consistent with those proposed by Holland.Keywords
