Abstract
Mean Kuder Preference Record Scores were compared for 55 trade-school dropouts and 48 students who completed their programs. The average profiles of the two groups were about the same, and only one mean difference was significant, and that only at the .05 level. It is concluded that "1. The present use of the Kuder Preference Record in these trade training departments of this vocational school is of very limited value in helping students evaluate their decisions to become mechanics . . . [and] 2. ... the Kuder is not helpful in distinguishing between those who will complete mechanical courses and those who will not.
